Magic In the Melody

music live, transport infer..) 

from smiling keys; 

close as breath, to the 

listening & voluble air.

good morning and happy easter, Joe. I was not trying to be feisty with that little ditty of mine. It was an entry for rhyme battle. but I never win with that judge and I just feel so discouraged because a lot of people told me they expected it to win. So I put it into PD's contest. we shall see!!!

Can't write a poem without music, I think the two go together just as you did with this one!

Warmth in the tangent study of this instrument, Joe. Can sound so hauntingly beautiful. "smiling keys" ...do you play the piano, Joe? Hope you'll have a great weekend! Best wishes, Mikki

I love the way you describe the "smiling keys." The piano is my favorite instrument. Music does seem to transport us to a different state of mind. Thanks for visiting my work, Joe. I returned your Soup mail and am doing fine now. Love, Carolyn

Well Done Joe My husband plays, I watch his ample fingers press against the ivory causing new melodies to fill the room with a great melodious ambiance of romance. Music is an internal gift Love Cookie
