The PIANO is greater than the sword

The PIANO is greater than the sword

A Poem by Shannon
"

I could right FOREVER about this instrument. And this is all straight from the heart. enjoy.

"
88 keys
all black and white
Make me weak at the knees
as my heart takes flight

beautiful music
a soft melody
this echoing instrument
speaks straight to me

telling me secrets
showing me ways
singing out lyrics
not heard in this day

A chord here
a crescendo there
notes ring out strong and clear
into the once empty air

showing me the colors
that can never be seen
opening up doors
to worlds so pristine

My hands seem to move
of their own accord
they just seem to prove
that the PIANO is greater than the sword!

The way that you rhyme is amazing. It seems almost effortless to you and not at all forced like some other writers. This piece flows beautifully from begining to end...like a river. Soo full of passion for the piano. Great write!
