Analysis of This Is A Song



this is a song of silence
a song of thought
a song without words

this is a song of music
a song intruments play aloud
a song you nod your head to

this is a song of words
a song of communication
a song of the people

this is a song of laughter
a song of smiles
a song from the heart

this is a song of dreams
a song of imagination
a song of the mind

this is a song
