Poem
for a New Musician
Make your music, my child!
Try the old piano out and see
What magic it can do.
See how each key, whether black or white
Has its own perfect place.
Feel the coolness of ebony and ivory.
Hear the notes; soft when you lightly
touch,
Loud when you pound.
Now go and play the tune that has been
hidden
Away in the heart of you.
