Prompt 4: What does music mean to you? ~ Poetry

Is Music Enough?

Mama loved her music
Played with old 78s
Or with a baritone,
a toe tap and metronome

Mama love band
With music score and stand,
With uniforms and football games
Winning awards and accolades

Mama lived life unbalanced
Only one child in her five with talent
She would shout and pound the fist
Musical perfection she would insist

The instruments entered the home
A cornet, two clarinets, two baritone
Though Mama tried her best
Still, four instruments left

Music was her answer to everything
But only one heard, the cornet had skill
Was music enough for him? For her?
Practice and more practice

Mama, music is enough.
Music will always be enough.
