My Blue Living Room Walls

The ivory keys were cool to the touch,

Strumming out a soft melody

Of notes I've gotten

To know by heart.

The noise echoes off my blue living room walls

Ringing again and again,

In a crescendo of sounds

Bouncing off my eardrums once more.

A picture

Floats into my head,

Of a single spotlight

On a wooden stage

Masses of crowds filled to hear

The sounds of a massive Grand Piano.

But the picture fades from my mind

As the notes descend

Back into the quiet room,

Where nothing will hear them

Except for my blue living room walls.
