The first note eases itself slowly into the wind Like the first wonderful drop that melts into the ground and begins the path for the rest to follow And as it goes on the next one comes along smoothly and together they flow along their swaying path climbing up difficult slopes and gliding down others winding around potential obstacles painting a picture in the mind so clear and significant it's more wonderful than a vision It's beyond It stirs emotion directly and that part of you that craves for sustenance for existence rides with each drop of a note the rhythm of the art beating with your own heart O what a wonderful ride You ride the current through its highs and lows each peak and each valley you encounter is like a drop of dew in the morning a ray of sunlight on a dreary day that smile when all around you see anger and sadness a powerful climax to life And for an endless second it becomes your life Then downward it goes faster gushing like the blood in your veins until it reaches the end where it meets the rest of the notes in the world A held intonation An infinite caress A moment lost in time
