Pianoforte (Day 876)


Centuries have unfolded

since he 

last reached out   

   caressed 

dark weighted keys

his hand   

               warm   graceful

and they   aligned 

in stark formation  have been 

kind to him   to we

who knew 

                him

who sang 

                him 

like a woodlark’s song
