The Piano Miracle

The Royal Conservatory of Music,
A beautiful statuesque building,
Windows towards nature,
A walk through the portals,
The halls long and winding,
Sounds of God's symphony,
Vocal and instrumental music classes,
Resounding, while you wait for your lesson,
A solo assignment,
Satisfying to learn to sing beautifully,
Years of learning piano as a child,
To discover my love of music through the years,
To have endured songs,
Only to discover my love of the piano as a senior,
Learning to play again on a dusty old piano,
Chosen to play for the senior teas,
The beautiful china teacups and saucers, delicious foods,
Songs of classical, church, popular and contemporary music,
Christmas songs of yesteryear,
Beautiful memories,
One day there in place of the old piano,
Stood a beautiful piano with a good sound,
The piano miracle appreciated.
