Bolton Street At Night 1900
Walk down into Bolton Street strolling unhurried enjoying the pleasant square,
Turning off along a small side street with lights no people, nothing is there,
Then in a window a golden cube it's the main window in a night black as coal,
A small glow of light appeared and for a moment, etched it's image in my soul.
So I stood and filled my pipe and rested near this glowing window full of light,
Then to my amazement cool drops from piano keys tinkled so softly in the night,
I stood there listening to a maestro a musical genius playing a familiar tune,
Greg, Schuman or Chopin’s music played so sweetly under a full harvest moon,
Out of the same window an angel appeared and sung with such a beautiful voice
Beating of keys on wire made hairs on my neck stand, the tune a lovely choice.
