PASS IT ON
Will you sit next to me? he said.
She obliged.
Slowly, surely and truly,
The pen and the piano held hands.
Hearing and loving the power inside them,
They journeyed to far off lands.
Catching stories in dream nets and enchanting them into scores.
Served up with whimsy,
Musical gifts graced the stage.
Passed on generously and ready to make noise.
