I Breathe Music
A prose poem about my longtime passion for music. Includes five out of hundreds of my favourite songs that inspired me to write.
When I hear the sound of metallic flutes, rhythmic xylophones, melodic guitars, peaceful pianos, and deafening drums, I feel as alive as the sun shining in the cloudless sky. Music and sound is my life and makes me breathe, see, fly, dance, walk, run, hop, and sleep. Music is a part of my identity that can't be confiscated. It's my form of medicine, art, therapy, and education. I breathe, value, honour, and I'm married to music. It's my teacher, spouse, friend, doctor, nurse, therapist, mentor, and caregiver. Without music, I would be dead as a crumpled leaf, and incomplete as a human being.
Here are some of my favourite songs that inspired me to write this prose poem.
1. Chofim (Beaches)- Arik Einstein
2. Stories- Leonard Carow
3. Discotheque- Culture Shock
4. Atop a Cake- Alvvays
5. Cloud 9- Beach Bunny

Thank you! Nice❤️Music and Poetry💕
Talia... you and I share that love of music. I am also married to music... live it and breath it. I really like Arik Einstein. I love the deep deep voice. One of my favorite singers (and a friend of mine) Liam McKahey has a similar deep and rich voice. Arik will go on my Must Check Out list. Leonard Carow also interests me. I have heard Culture Shock, Alvvays, and Beach Bunny from my 22 year old friend illiana. She is always keeping me up to date on her favorites. Good list and good read.
I had never heard any of those songs. I really iiked the song called story. Everybodies taste in music is so different
Excellent words and great choice of tunes, none of which I know, thank you.
Awesome!!! Love music too! 👏💖😊💕
