Babylon
I cannot live without music
therefore do not, to think
unthinkable not within my grasp.
Walls which echo flute and
song, drum and fife, to
sing within the choir.
Woodland song and drumming
woodpeckers to drown the
Babylon of bikes and buses.

Yes! Music, be it composed by man or nature (but especially nature), are reminders of the beauty beyond so much noise pollution. The alliteration in the final line is musically rhythmic itself, leaving the reader humming.

Music is an essential for me,both concordant and discordant all our emotions can be expressed in music perhaps speaking more clearly than speech
