Saphire

A thing of elegance
Versatile in every way
A classical piece
Creating a sound of beauty
Or maybe a blues
Playing my troubles away
Ragtime and jazz
Swing and baroque
Light dances on the silver keys
As I fill the room with sweet music
My passion
My life
My love

Author notes

Saphire is the name of my clarinet. I've been playing for about 6 years now and I really would be lost without it.

    This is so true - sums up my own feelings exactly, certainly know where you are coming from. Lovely use of language. Last three lines are a good length as they convey the poignancy and expression of what is being said. Keep writing!!! Amber x x x
