Life without music is like an empty box, a worthless soul 
feels like a life all tied up with chains all locked.   

It's the world where you dance and tap your feet, 
where your spirit and the essence of the music meets.  
It's the world where you are in another dimension   
and you forget about your day-to-day tensions.  

music is essential for everyone's life 
I enjoy every lyric 
it makes me sing out, 
it makes me dance out loud. 

guitar, piano or saxophone 
all instruments make their own way 
some songs make us motivated, some touch our feelings 
listening to all of them feels like I have touched the ceiling. 

its the ideal way to relax and and mellow down 
turns that frown upside down 
whoever wishes to, can sing a song
be it old, youth or a teen singing to a melody along.

music is a path to a final destination 
we are all crazy like a musician
music has no language or a religion
it only knows heart to heart connection.

what if I try to fly in the sky, 
with the birds and the clouds floating by?

what if I try to find a treasure box 
in the deep dark blue sea, 
it would be a great pleasure 
if I found the key.

what if I try to build a gigantic castle,  
full of precious rubies, gems and stones
it would be fun and free of hassle
and my pup would keep his bones.

what if I make a lofty fifty layered cake 
full of scrumptious frosting and multiple flavored cream
oh! I forgot it would be laborious to bake
well, that's what it seems!

One day, the day would arrive soon 
when I would grow up 
all my fascinating joyful fun 
and the cuddling time with my pup
would be gone forever...

one day, the day would arrive soon 
when I would be reminiscing my school days 
they were free of responsibilities and tension 
agitation and stress to be also mentioned 

one day, the day would arrive soon  
when I will be working heavily- 
in the workplace, home and for society 
I seem to commit  hard on this steadily 
as my childhood would be gone forever 

so now I shall cherish my moments 
once gone, would not come back 
the cheering innocence in adulthood then would lack.     
treasure your youth, have no distress, hold complaints and grudges never 
when would you revere these days, after your childhood would be gone forever?

we all lose a plethora of opportunities 
but life moves on 
we lose a lot of chances 
but life goes on 

why don't we learn everything from life? 
why don't we just move on? 

each of us have shredded tears  
each of us have experienced a broken heart 
did life stop for us and asked us the reason from the start? 

there are times when we are despondent  
there is nothing at all to make us content 

why don't we just keep our head and chin up? 
forget and forgive our past 
live like our life's a frolicsome club 
join life's lessons that are vast 

so come on guys, it's going to be alright 
people change and things go wrong 
but we should always remember  
'life moves on...'

when the air blows 
it takes my things away 
to far as well as close 

all my shirts lined up 
reaches the neighbor's pup 
he tears them and throws them back 
now who wouldn't get vexed with this kind of stuff? 

when the air blows 
the rustling brown leaves fly to the sky 
up there, between the clouds high 

all the leaves come down 
like a shower of tawny rain 
some fall down on the ground  
some fall down in the drain 

when the air blows 
it takes my opened umbrella away 
I try to catch it but fail in the way 

I catch the umbrella in such a way 
it gets broken and lies in the heap of hay 
I pick it up and get startled to hear the wind say- 
"if you want I can blow all your things away, what's your say?"

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
