Weekly Scribblings #23: By Means Of Music

Definition by Loui Jover ~ Pinterest
“Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.” ― Victor Hugo

Hello everyone and welcome to another round of Weekly Scribblings! Music has always been my means of inspiration, whether the days are sunny or dipped in pewter clouds. The past few days have been heart-wrenching with the riots in US. I strongly feel that this is the time when we need to soothe our nerves the most and so, I am back with a playlist which I hope will appeal to you.  


A Playlist Compiled for the Heart:
For today's challenge, I want you all to draw inspiration from the YouTube Playlist above. Pick a song that appeals to you and let your muse run free. You could be inspired by the title, the lyrics or just the emotions that the song evokes. Please do mention your choice somewhere in the post and remember to give credit. 

It's like a dear friend of mine once said, "Do the things that keep you calm. Meditating or listening to music or whatever you do." We at Poets and Storytellers United accept both poems and prose (i.e. stories, essays, articles) the prompt will remain open until next Wednesday. Also, if you opt to write prose then please keep it to 369 words or fewer.

Good luck composing your masterpieces! I look forward to reading what you come up with. And lastly, please visit and comment on your fellow writers. Have fun!πŸ’˜
