With a single strum
The ears perk
And the spirit awakens
Waves of music absorbed into every pore
Not even a year
She listens with keen interest
Fascinated by the sound
And pulled to move closer
The chords drawing her in
The strings fill a silent room
Joy, life, and magic
Noted by those present
The tiniest among us smiles and coos
A reminder that music surrounds and envelopes.
