Song About An Instrumental
By Kurt Swinghammer

Music for my Mother
Who only once ever told me
She liked the music I was playing
On the stereo
She asked “What do you call it”
I told her about the artist
And his concept of making music
For LaGuardia
And travellers waiting to depart

The British import of Music For Airports
Kept playing on

30 years later
In an tourist town chapel
I played that music
At the funeral for my dad
And my Mother didn’t cry
But she mentioned the unusual music
That didn’t sound happy
and didn’t sound sad
Another traveller waiting to depart

At 91 my Mother
Called out to her brother
Who had passed away nearly 20 years before
And as she lay there dying
The music played on
