Pre-Concert Panorama

Cocked heads at curious angles Fingers probing plucking plinking Seeking a certain sound Not quite yet... Restlessness increasing As if we who have paid good money for this are not--- Ah! There it is The lights dim...

I feel your anticipation mounting in this write, almost to the point of aggravation, but then the sweet sound only seconds away as the lights dim - great write. hugs Jennifer.

It can get a bit aggravating listening to all that discord. Thanks, Jennifer. ~ gw

I relate to all of it, felt myself shift in my chair, except line 8 which describes people I divorce. Just kidding. When you dimmed the lights, I could feel the anxious audience dim their thoughts, relax, and enjoy. All the best ... CayCay

Sounds like we're on the same wave length tonight... But it's time for me to ease off this wave and onto the pillow. Thanks for making the send-off so pleasant. I really do owe you. Lights out. Shhh….
