A Piano Poem by Savita Tyagi
A Piano
Sometime I wish I had a piano
In a long list of wishes may be another addition
Or if my pen was a piano key
On lazy afternoons of summer
When touched softly
Its music would break the silence of this room
The languid humming of air conditioner
Would mellow in its sweet sound
The colors esoteric in nature
Ascending through air reaching to empyrean
Would shower upon me in sweet paean
I do laugh at the idea though
That sounds so perfect in phantasmagoria
The trill coming out of the keys
Would probably be as smudged and muddled
As the writing coming out of this pen
Backed only with a dull desire or inclination to write
When would I realize that the pen or the piano key
Both are substitute for my inability
To sit quiet and enjoy the stillness.
...'Both are substitute for my inability To sit quiet and enjoy the stillness.' I'm torn by my need to decide between awarding you 3 1/2 and 4 stars. Alas i guess I'll have to choose 4. ;)
your rating destroyed the perfect five rating of the poem! Sob Sob! Don't count on my being faithful any more!
NOW, to make up for my below-5-stars rating, I sent this to my 'favorites'! ! ! : )))))
When has a woman EVER been faithful to ME! ! ? [[ see Savita's 'tongue-in-cheek'? ]] reply to my yer okd comment ]]
