My Personal Poet

My oldest daughter had to write a free form poem for school. When she read it to me, I loved it and want to share it with you. Here goes...


PIANO ROOM

Guests walk in amazed,
with their mouths open wide,
speechless at the beautiful sight.
Large, tall windows,
shining light on the smooth black top.
All kinds of instruments,
red cushiony chairs around
for people to sit and listen.
Everyone gathers, waiting to hear a beautiful noise,
while my dad is seated at his baby grand,
hands resting gently on the keys.
This is one of my family's favorite rooms,
so beautiful and open,
useful for so many things.
We call it our sanctuary - the Piano Room.
