A Man Is Playing Beethoven

In a huge open field,
lay the pristine new snow;
and beyond a mountain view.

The sky is a cloudless blue,
and no footsteps can be seen;
in the vast open space of white.

Yet, a grand piano stands,
in this place of no footsteps;
where  a man is playing Beethoven.

For me . . .

A symphony-A perception of all things possible. A visually penned words created a rhythm. Thanks Constance. Sending warm smiles, Connie

wow, conjuring "sound" to go with the majestic beauty. VEry original and clever, Constance. You are coming up with some great poetry. On the other hand, I am here uninspired by any of the other contests I've not written for yet. Hopefully something will come to me today!
