My music adventure continued

Wednesday, 2025.2.5 at 06:36:00. This morning at M Central, The piano was yet available. To save time, I wipe the keyboard clean. Then a tall firgure, walked up to me. "There you are, we meet again". Immediately, I greeted him with a smile and a bow "Ohayo gozai maus. Today, I insist on hearing you play" He grinned and bowed back "Ohayo gozai masu. Let me warm up." He stood at the piano And fiddling his fingers with the keyboard. When the piano was ready, To be situated at its designated place, I said "I wrote a poem, About the other day when we met, Would you like to see it?" He said "Yes, I'll be delighted" He gently recited it with a cadence. The way he read, made me so proud being a poet. He stopped frequently "very good rhythm here" Once the piano was ready, He changed his mind and invited me to play. He explained further about piano technique. I believed he enjoyed in helping me To improve my skill. Today, he no longer mentioned "A begginner". He said he would be back later. What I admired him most was his manner, Calm, polite like a professional leader. I asked if he knew about Brahms' lullaby. Next I showed my poem of "Fruits Book Good Night". He slowly got down on his knees, And read it comfortably. He took his time and let me scroll up the screen. When came to the lullaby lyrics. He halted liked he wanted me to do it. I did put on my best singing performance. We both enjoyed so much at that moment. At the end of reading the poem, I said "Two weeks ago, Some one showed it to me, Encouraged me to make the lyrics and play it on the piano. I did both on the next day, I planned to show the lyrics to him first, But never see that person again. I posted it on the internet instead. I did not quite understand, Someone would introduce me to a world of poetry, Show me beautiful musics, Then just disappeared without a message. Any way, whatever it was, Good luck to that person in settling, In the new state and new residence.
