You giggle
delightedly
as I
grasp you by the waist
lift & place
you
on the grand piano
you hit
a bum note
but then
dangling your toes
in the froth
of keys
tiptoe through something
a little more musical
(the ebb & flow of waves)
My favourite composer
...my laughing little girl.
I so love your 'Tilly' poems and the way that you father her...pushing her imagination further and further. I love how you 'Dad' her.You just seem to totally enjoy her just as much as she enjoys you. This is a delight! Just that simple placing her on the piano and how the events unfold then. You are my favourite daddy poet for ever! love Dee Dee

How I laughed at your oh, so subtle, 'bum note! ' No one but you would have thought of that one!
