Rain scratches the vertical
white lines of darkness
in neighboring window
across my room.
What after all they can hide
behind the curtains of wet
wooden/glass frame..., soon
they lower the blinds, won’t see
more the dark soggy night, and I
stay single with music and tree
Bonsai.
I slowly approach piano,
glissando every&each key,
the sky presents the glint
of lightning !!!
What level/phase/time
the players are we?..
playing the piano in the dark while the rain pours down is a beautiful thing... haven't done this in a while but should again...
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed. Like the contemplation played out before the music is played..
ReplyDeletea really interesting question there in the end...
ReplyDeleteit is the point for me...the other imagery all plays well together
but that question is one we will ask til the end
of time...
Just letting the notes flow as the rain plays a tune all its own
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's nice when the rain falls and you can shut the blinds and be yourself and play..this captures that feeling perfectly
ReplyDeleteBonsai is the perfect pet, it has a bark but doesn't. Humor aside, I felt warm and comfortable looking out at the rain safely inside.
ReplyDeleteLove the mood of this poem. Rainy days are good for music

This seemed a lonely and melancholy piece, I don't know if the piece colors my mood, or my mood colors the piece?
ReplyDeleteI like the atmosphere you created and then filled with imagery and music.
