Description: "This collection of poems spans many moods, but is set by music. If you listen closely, you can hear the rhythms and melodies of songs that moved us to "Tears", made us "Smile", pleaded that we "Open Our Eyes", asked "What's Going On" and in the words of Mother Mary, "Let It Be". You can view these songs alongside the poems that they themselves inspired. This is a tribute to the great artists and composers of some of the most treasured productions of all time. The poems written for this collection serve as appreciation for those efforts. You're invited to hum along, read along, and settle in, as you peruse the varied moods of My Music Book."--Amazon.
Notes: Each chapter is inspired by a song or artist who was important to the artistic development of the author, ranging from "Over the Rainbow" to modern pop hits.
