Post-writing 5 Put up your speech in the classroom or deliver it to your class. Hello! My name is John, and I'm here to talk about the power of music over words. Two years ago, my grandmother passed away, and music has helped me cope since then. Sometimes words cannot describe what we are feeling, but music can. As Hans Christian Andersen once said, “here words fail, music speaks.” Music is like a special language that everyone can understand. Have you ever heard a piece of music and remembered an important time in your life? Perhaps when something important happened, or when you felt really happy or sad. Post-writing I feel this way about a piece of classical music by Eric Satie called “Gymnopedie No.1”. It reminds me of my grandmother. It is like an old friend comforting me when I hear it. This music helps me remember how much I miss her. It helps me remember all the great times we had. And music helps me be grateful for that time together. If you struggle to find the words to help you, music can be your guide. 5 Put up your speech in the classroom or deliver it to your class.
