Piano Keys

Piano Keys ~

 

Softly, silver entwined-

 piano keys,

making a tinkle sound that,

whisk silently across the page,

taking to my heart its deep message,

carrying me to a measured lust,

a beauty that could never be-

seen before revelation,

by the unlikely notes which coursed,

across my iced-up chest like-

skates that encourage me with,

imagined lines that glide down and up,

rising and falling in a pillowed-storm,

one that is my breath,

one which is no longer harsh,

softened by the nourishing love that speaks to-

the beautiful rush,

quiet rise, and fall . . .

this feeling, which has taken over my chest,

that now courses through my-

entire body,

living in my being, and teaching me to-

listen to the notes,

that are my song,

a joyful, imploding sound which,

flows throughout and across and over me-

these piano keys, which gently encourage me to that seat,

the piano seat that wrings my heart,

where thoughts flow infinite and deep,

to those lovely gliding notes,

skate across my chest,

as the ice warms, within my breast-

and I write,

to my own piano.
