The Piano

Keys of black and white

lined up in a row.

twos and threes, a combination that makes a melodic sound.

Flat and sharp, whole note or half;

when they come together they make music.

Music we all know and love.

Music Unforgettable; like Yesterday. Do you remember?

 

Music of spring and flowers that bloom.

Autumn Leaves that fall and Wedding Bell Blues.

Words we all want to say,

but Without A song we couldn’t second That Emotion or Cry The Tears Of A Clown when no one is around.

 

Seductive or dramatic

loud or soft

when the first note is struck

we want to name that tune.

Acoustic, electronic,

baby grand or upright

it’s the player and the song

the voicing you can’t get out of your head.

late in the midnight hour you’ll remember

You’ve Got A Friend.
