Piano Ecstasy
~~~
Undulating ivory flowing like the sea
glistening with harmony in tones from A to G
my piano holds the secret to the passions deep within me
like petals on a daisy its keys are potpourri
Listen to the hammers as they pounce upon the strings
striking up vibrations as the wooden soundboard sings
no digitizing keyboards or other silly things
just acoustical pianos that rule the world like kings!
I'll play a little prelude or a movement from a dance
I'll play a long concerto that will put you in a trance
I'll play a little piece from a childhood song you know
I'll play a little romance that will set your heart aglow
My fingers crave the keyboard
my ears revere the sound
my body yearns the sweet vibrations for which pianos are renowned
Play a note
or play a chord
or play a complex melody
or play them altogether in a piano symphony
it matters little what you play
just play the keys for me
I'll listen to your playing with piano ecstasy
I'm addicted to the wooden box
it fills my life with joy
please don't take it from me
it's my favorite awesome toy!

I just wrote this for this thread. Am I a nice guy or what?

(I mean even if the poetry stinks I'm still a nice guy, right?)
