"Sing a song," The master said, "Before you don't And wind up dead. Sing a song And you will see How happy, Sad, And young you be."
"What shall I sing?" The singer asked, "For up till now Not one has tasked To write that thing you call A song. If none exists, I'll right that wrong."
And so to paper pen was put, And rhyme appeared. Of love, And joy, And dreams of what Was yet to come.
"Tis half a song at best," He mused. And then a breeze his mind did soothe, And from his lips emerged a tune. It was the first such sound And soon Was heard by all who ventured near The singer.
And from that first song Came the rest. And through the time Each one was best, From singers who caressed the breeze And gifted us, Our souls to please.
There had to be a first song. And there had to be a creative force. This is about the interplay between song writer and that force.
