What’s Not Music?
What’s not music? Everything is music.
The smart cock crowing To awaken the morning.
The cuckoo bird cooing For its mate wooing.
The honeybees buzzing With their wings flying.
The young calf calling Its cow for feeding.
The peasant folks singing When they’re harvesting.
The crystal stream gurgling When its water is flowing.
The ocean waves rising As they move jumping.
The rain drops drumming O’er the roof, while falling.
The green leaves fluttering To the strong wind blowing.
The temple bells ringing To the pleasure of hearing.
The distant siren hooting As a source of warning
The factory machines working A rhythmic sound making.
So, there’s music in everything To the lovers of listening.
Life is a waste Sans music taste.
