C major Lullabies

Fingers stroked,
Ebony and ivory …
C major lullabies
Made me Leap
When I walked.
But among
The majors,
Were minors …
The last dance,
The last drink …

When I think about it,
I was never that good
At the piano.

    I really like where you took this poem and this picture. I'm a junior, but I plan on majoring in music. So I liked the "fancy" music words you used. I liked how you used the "ebony and ivory", I tend to refer to the keys in this way too. Great write, and good job. Thanks for entering and good luck!

    Enjoyable...

    I love the piano...not so good myself either. But this piece on the other hand is exceptionally penned. I enjoyed the contrasts. The whole of it was wonderful. Thanks for sharing. ~~
