the bird notes soar
and I try – but my tune
has no wings
music
Case Closed
I’ve closed the case
on my folks’ musical hopes
sour notes linger
Entertaining
what a drummer!
young flicker finds chimney vent
entertaining
Singing Along
Sunday evening church
“in the sweet by and by…”
robins sing along
Off-Beat
street musicians
their flutes so eloquent – the drummer
is out of sync
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Or so said my daughter, who has a keen ear for music. We were listening to a group of Peruvian street musicians one evening in Montreal and I was so absorbed in the poignant beauty of their flutes I never noticed the drum.)

Triumph Tones
Light tones of flutes
trill composer’s expertise
audience enthralled
