Notes About The Poem

Inspired by the Earth Wind Fire contest compound word verse contest, but using a different topic

Musical Fingers - Compound Word Verse

Both hands simultaneously
Depressing white key and black key
Fingertips
Arpeggios plucked string by string
Or six strings together strumming
Fingernails
"Pulling-off" or "hammering-on"
Up the neck for chord inversions
Fingerboards
