Scumann's creative piano technique*
Clara ever so romantique
her fingers glide
across the waking piano
morning notes rise
soft as dawn’s breath
the day begins singing
She looks at the grand piano, wonders
what might have been if she learned
years ago a few songs
piano ' in a landscape'*-
John Cage in a more conventonal shape
Nail clipped
hands scale ivory
tones striving for
bright major key rhythm
try after try until finally
applause.
life is a piano
white days near black days
hot fingers
cold fingers
the death
always in the background
murmuring a lullaby
If only I had a piano
would I eclipse
the porcelain in my life
I do not think so
as I do not use ivory and ebony
I just play the keys
I have heard you still play them
Those olde, sad songs you loved
Spirited fingertips touch ...
Upon the dusty keys
And haunting melodies
Swan Lake* by Peter Tchaikovsky for sure
success after initial failure
fingers skimming the ivories as if playing my heart

He played the piano with such passion
His gift a talent unpursued

Caress my keys love with soft hand rolls.....
bringing tones from my very soul.

Play piano tree
Deciding what keys to press
Branches as fingers
To play old songs on itself
No notes ever created

Rachmaniov 2nd movement of number 2*
a 'Brief Encounter**' 'emotes' into view
Pianist's fingers trill the room
while the ghosts of Liszt and Chopin loom
For entry to competition on The Piano for Rick Parise competition
A Well tempered clavier* by Sebastian Bach
. motivated in Johann a creative spark
In the abbey lived Friar McFunk,
Who pounded piano while drunk,
But to pay for his rye,
Was caught robbing the tythe,
Now they call him Felonious Monk.
Dancing in the summer moonlight.
Stars twinkle in harmony like piano notes.
Wishing this night never ends.

I played my toy piano.
Sounded like happy tunes of christmas chimes.
Looking back on turquoise memories.

Tinkle those ivory keys.
Piano man, don’t stop please.
We don’t want that hip hop.
Play us a jazzy tune.
A song to which we can croon
And sing about the moon.
