Notes About The Poem

Dream of dreams

O what joy it would be
to suddenly overnight be a piano virtuoso
to wake up with the fingers of a master
to possess the skill of composing an aria
to enthrall the world with a moonlit sonata
to be stirred by the passion of a liberace
O magnificence ~ what pure joy it would be

Good dream. Mine would be to play guitar. After practicing daily for 2 years in my late 40s, I was too nervous to do it for my students I never got good enough and cannot play by ear. Picked up the guitar on my 60s. All I learned has gone from my mind except for three chords and a few strums. A string broke and I just said: so much for that!!
