The Music Family

Merry trumpet, sassy saxophone Stand poised in the quaint jazz room, waiting on their music men to begin their heartfelt tunes. Bold drums awaiting patiently For slim sturdy wooden sticks, to beat rhythm on their tummies and give all fun loving kicks. Great tuba's vigorous chiming voice so deep and oh so grand! Brings heart and soul and humor To the jolly good brass band. Round banjo with its steely strings gets plucked and strummed with joy As it sounds those fun and lively tunes that we hum and so enjoy. Majestic piano's harmonic keys, Tap melodious magnificient airs Reverberating ubiquitously, By the maestro graced with flair. In delightful unison they permeate our souls, These musical masters and their wares. Give glory to our "Ultimate Composer", Whose creations are so debonair. May 13, 2016 (Revised December 2016)

Music to my ears, when read aloud, Susan. A cute one. I used to collect instruments as a hobby, but then I realized that piano was the only thing I really knew how to play ...
