The Child Pianist

I am attracted by Virtuous notes A capable sound From a Steinway & Sons grand piano A mighty orchestra Unknown melodies A child prodigy at the keyboard A Gift of Peace The hammer that strikes golden strings Of a grand piano. Bravo. Hurrah. A Laurel, a performance hardly heard Attentive spectators rejoice The vaults of the concert hall Reflect corpulent sounds Gershwin’s Allegro or Lento 'Scherzo Con Brio' without hardship The child pianist That angels also listen Of a talent that inebriates like wine And the key to a distant remembrance It is now a choral Then a horn sound Of at an Imperial Andante Then the violins all around Fiery Rondo. Dreamy adages. Arpeggio and a madrigal Finally, the Grand Finale Without hesitation
