Notes About The Poem

Fidgety Fingertips

Fidgety fingertips
tickling tempo and time,
modeling melody,
writing in rhythm and rhyme.

Frolicking fantasy -
magic in music sublime.
Perfectly pleasing performance;
cleverly crafting the climb.

Being a guitar player this one really spoke to me. I love this form and how you crafted your words to fit it perfectly. There is a soft melody that accompanies this piece as if a tune playing in the mind that you just can't help but hum. Nicely done my friend.
