The ARTS tend to bring us together…
Even in a war torn world,
poetry – music – and art would always string together
In the symphony of life,
That little art in heART shall help us heART the ARTS and connect us forever
Although, at times, we may find it hard to string together common ground,
As we orchestrate our differences in the key of life, the culture of us shall resound
As the inclusiveness of the violin, viola, cello, double bass, and harp string together a beautiful sound,
So too shall the diversity of us create harmony
For the strings tying us together shall always be tied to peace – love – and harmony,
the common ground collective shall always be found in the beauty of banding together
My poems are not poems…
Yet my heartstrings strike a chord amongst those that see the beauty in banding together
And I say that to say:
How long must ye single each other out before ye band together?
As the poets put words together,
The musicians bring instruments together,
And the artists blend colors together,
So too must all walks of mankind come together
As dialect is not detected in laughter,
Joy is the instrument that brings forth the cliché “that is music to my ears!”
For how sweet the sound of a foreign dialect,
When love is the universal language and common ground is shared
To become familiar with your neighbor’s traditions and customs is to erase your fears

“When we’re defining culture, it’s often about how you can turn something that’s not yours into your own. I always felt that Bach was my music — I lived my whole life living and experiencing this music almost every day. It’s in my skin, it’s in my bones, it’s in my memory – it’s in all my experiences. And I believe that until we stop becoming human, Bach’s music is going to be continually listened to, because of the kind of understanding that he brings to human nature. It is one way that #cultureconnectsus.”
