Sentimental Mood

Ellington is sitting and tinkling the black and white keys
Coltrane standing and blowing like an autumn breeze

Mood__

Nostalgic, misty-eyed, and feelings of tenderness 
Her sweet perfume lingers, her velvety voice echoes, and her sweet caress I cherish 

Sentimental__

Relishing, missing, and longing for a distant but not forgotten yesterday 
Today, I sit alone. Alone in a sentimental mood as my heart asks, "Why did she have to go away?"
