A thankfulness of sound

"We are born to sing. For no other reason could the intricate machinery of the voice-box exist: six pairs of muscles stabilising the oft-rocked cradle of three cartilages that adjust the vocal folds according to whim or will. To use the vocal instrument only for speaking would be a tragedy akin to driving an All-Terrain Vehicle round the corner to the local 7-11. For a packet of peanuts."

The concert was wonderful. The sounds, magical.
It would have been better if you were here with me, though.
