The Piano Seduction
Mesmerized...she's playing with purpose
fingers delicate, skilled...searching
finding the keys that speak to me
High
Low
The notes they flow
from the baby grand she plays
emotion frays
and sways with no malaise
Stage lights light her-a blue dimension of lovely
shadow lingers on the features
brows furrowed intense
lips pursed to words intense
eyes gazed into the grand...recalling
recalling the spirit that birthed this song
She transforms...
A medium for this spirit...
I see now through her eyes...
reliving a moment I'd not lived at all
Captured completely...she sings to me sweetly
A moment she shows me her soul
She smiles back knowing--the melody flowing
pockets the heart that she stole
