Piano

Pick a tune with pazazz. Play that great old time Jazz. Piano man hit heights. Please play those black and whites. Pure honkey tonk, tap feet. Put old time feelings, sweet. Perfection, feel the beat.

Me too. Ages since I have experience great live music. Cant beat the feel of the room vibrating with tones put out by real live instruments being played at their best. You made me smile ! Thanks for your comments Anaya.

Be still my beating heart x I love that image with your poem :-))) I once found an old piano, with a chair in the orangery at Dunham Massey stately home and I used to visit and play - it looked just like this (kinda). I loved that piano so very much.. a little piece of heaven.. sadly no more. Thank you for this - you have made my poetry day.

Oh Sam you just made my day my friend. Love of music certainly brings people together. My Granddaughter told me that love is friendship set to music. Best wishes Sam from SV
