Keyboard A keyboard calked by time’s fine tune my hands lined blue in treble staff and warring fingers hold the need to play hard truth till it is pretty soprano finds the highest place the cords to slam in strongest bass to court distrust until it sees the human side of victory Place me on the music stand this song is bursting from my mood and I can’t stand in curve and see how fine strung time is distancing my breathing in and breathing out percussion now in fling about would find the drizzle drain of verve and close it with one honest cord Strike sharp then flat and in between see the place of harmony so gentle be with finger pad touch it now and gather glad syncopated time moves on and I still yearn a song and I still yearn a song |

Ahhh, but do they know how well you also play the piano? You combined both beautifully Martie, just beautiful. May a handshake, smile, kiss or a hug be the best present you give or receive this year. |

"touch it now and gather glad syncopated time moves on and I still yearn a song and I still yearn a song" heard, the music of your words, and the yearning...beautiful, just beautiful!! "And it was at that age...Poetry arrived in search of me...And something started in my soul." |
