Light & Music
Light & Music
what do I know of this being
music deep and freeing
be it posh stages or smoky bars
in song, she holds her own smoky bars
/
in melody, in jazz, in sound
us all upon this earth found
in the words, the very feel
she is the real deal
/
and this star burns
offstage and in Life turns
breathing into harmonies
quietly growing sweet peas
/
sharing in time and thought
counsel and stuff that can’t be bought
nurturing and holding space
for the whole human race
/
that we may grow into new spaces
beyond living daily and murderous races
seek inside us all the eternal traces
of our light, beyond the golden maces
/
she is light
she is music
being human manifest
in plain sight
Light & Music is a praise song in appreciation of Estelle Kokot; a being of joyful light and soulful music.
