{Your Muse}

do you hear that?

as the piano plays

each key being sought out

        WANTED
        NEEDED

in their own way

for a purpose

to become whole

                           in song...

- i wish to be chosen in the same manner.

' - i wish to be chosen in the same manner. '
the melody is calling me.

I love the soft and soothing sound of piano keys, as fingertips play.
Your thoughts take my breath away. I think I'll float for a while . .

This is beautiful in every way. : )

[John Sullivan]

As a lover and player of piano music, I must say I love the image.

thank you very much for your kind review :)

A reference to "My Muse" by Owl City, perhaps? I love that song, and often play it on the piano. Thank you for sharing!

never heard that song before reading your comment but i just listened to it now and after hearing the lyrics ~ it would fit perfectly.
this poem was inspired by a small piano piece that moved my soul.
{i believe the piano has the power to move mountains and soften harden hearts}

[Aneto]

Thank you for taking the time to listen to a song that has blessed my soul. Would you mind sharing the name of the piano piece, assuming it has been released publicly? Music is truly an incredible gift.

[living lavender]

no problem at all {considering you are about to do the same with the song that inspired these words}
i will send you a link so it is easier to find :)

[Thomas W Case]

Beautiful work. Powerful.

[living lavender]

I would like to be associated with the remarks of the above speaker. That is exactly how it is.

[living lavender]

this comment made me smile. i would like to be associated with them as well {through someone else's eyes} but compared to these words nonetheless.
:] thank you for your kind review.

Wonderfully structured, beautifully worded, concise and clear as a Beethoven sonata. So well written

[living lavender]

thank you for this flattering review.
stop by any time :)

[Re-Pete]

music doesn't lie. it has much to guide us and speak. our life is a song. well said ... :)

[living lavender]

beautifully said too. thank you for stopping by! :]

[Cyprian Van Dyke]

One hand or two, one finger or all fingers, in called *clanks* or tunes, a song can be played. But it's indeed amazing how it all comes together as a song that I too want to become a part of in itself. Wonderfully explained and expressed!

[living lavender]

at first it may seem random but when all is said and done.
the song created gives each chosen key purpose.
{thank you for your lovely words.}

This really spoke to me, being a pianist, I could relate to this wholly. Something you might enjoy and what this piece reminds me of is the song by Sting, "I can't stop thinking about you". Check it out if you get a chance.
In the coming together of a song, the birth is announced through music and the people rejoice. Nicely done.

[living lavender]

the lyrics of that song sound like poetry to me. thank you for sharing.
i will have to find the song that inspired these words and send it your way. being a pianist yourself. you may appreciate the song on whole other level altogether.
{thank you for your kind review.}

[willweb]

My pleasure. I will look forward to it.

[NormaZ]

Short but so sweet! Loved the imagery of the piano, and the idea that the muse is wanted and needed, where would we be without it.

[living lavender]

thank you for your kind review.
