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 . . .
