Welcome to Jessica Kelly's Poetry Page! "Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting that speaks" ~Plutarch
The Finger’s Magnet We can’t help ourselves
All ten of us
Those pearly white keys are magnets
They elicit us from our shells As we gently stroke their beautiful skin A sound so pure and powerful is born
The river of notes stream into the ears
It is a miracle
We insist on playing more Until our bodies are soar
But even then we do not stop
We are addicted to those keys It is our drug
The “high” it gives us is like no other It is sensational Indescribable
Sometimes we hop merrily as we play an upbeat minuet
Other times a beautiful ballad carries us gracefully along the keyboard
Either way we play with compassion
Our love for the keys is grand
A grand piano is where they stand
They give us purpose
They feed us with hope
They fill us with love The Piano’s Perspective As the fingers stroke me gently
I hear my beautiful sound
And watch the ears listen intently
As the fingers stroke me gently
My keys know no differently
Magic surrounds
As the fingers stroke me gently
I hear my beautiful sound
