Music

Music, Ah!  What wonderful
Magic therein lies
To swing us downward to dark depths
Or upward toward the skys.
A plaintive note can make our heart
Feel oh, so all alone,
Yet let the tune be ____ or glad;
And we get a cheerful tone.
No matter what the scale may be,
First happy, then so blue,
We still can picture ____ dreams of old
And new ones to come true.

By Treva E. Stokes (1912-1980)
