~ The Piano

 

Whimsical wind blew

Through this house tonight

After my nightly cup of tea

I slept all alone,

To get some inspiration

And be totally free

To feel some pure nothingness

Dreams of life to follow

As the crows, in my window,

In the dead of the night

Crowed defiance

Every night after night,

In the distance

This moment came

I heard his piano game

His notes were not like others

He played them like

The  wind could touch

The earth, without gravity

Invisible beauty,

But with that special touch

Only he could intoxicate

A woman of his caliber

When he played,  all became

Quiet, even the wind outside

Only his breath you heard

Gasping of passion, in between

The notes of his touch

It doesn’t matter where I am,

Always he shall follow me,

In day and night,

He shall play for me

Until I sleep

With these majors 

And minors of love

Perfectly balanced as his

Ghostly fingers danced

I know he’s with me forever

I smiled….

Never saw this one. This is such beautiful poetry and the music compliments it so well. I can imagine him talking to you through his piano in romantic notes played softly and delicately as interludes run through your head reminding you of his presence. Excellent work.

My dear friend, thank you for being here tonight, means much to me... and thank you for saying these fine words.... yes, he still plays for me.... :) xx be back for you

Oh, your second piano piece, and it is a new level! I love this, especially the speed at which it can be read. Just beautiful! X) 100

It's for the spirits, who play at night... and are inspirational... In my life I knew a lot of piano artists.... thank you deeply! xo

Strange & lovely evocation of piano spirit out of the nurturing pure nothingness -- enhanced by the accompanying piano piece. One imagines a further merger into the delicate instruments of lovemaking souls. . .

Some elusive things are strange not even to analyze... just to feel.... thank you very much!

Lovely as usual Elisa there is the surface beauty and the underlying sadness. Hear the piano man.

Thank you Moon
