How I learned the word "Music"

It feels like i'm back to six years old when I talk about this.
Music was the definition of my childhood and my family.
It filled the cracks on the walls,
and the darkness in every corner.
I would love to hear the beat of the bass pounding on my sister's door.
The muscial style of Discovery mixed with my brother's Blind Guardian.
Not a very good combination.
My dad would be working to the sound of The Four Tops,
while my mom would have the radio on,
listening to anything.
As for me, I would just sit by my fire and soak in every lyric that my ears caught sound of.
By the second chorus, I would be singing every word with the perfect tune.
Loving the sound of music, it was the definition of the Hlavatys.
