fingers dance on keys
ballerina like movements
gliding end to end
rhythmic changes makes them jump
frantic motion comes to rest

*Footnote:
The art and music brought the inspiration for this piece. The music is by Gershwin, titled Rhapsody In Blue which I used for the title of this piece. I have attached a link to a piano solo of his musical creation. Oh to be able to play like that. I have also posted the name of the artist on his work.
Thank you for taking the time to read my simple words. πβπ»β€οΈπ»

That “less is more” reminds me on something, on some artistic motto. I shall explore that subject and read your post, ’cause I’m a man who is an explorer, and wants to know everything about this world, even do I’m aware that I would need more then one human life for that…

Yes, it is. I post quiet a few, they are supposed to be about nature, however not all mine are. Some of my poetry is Spiritual by nature. My favorite poet is Rumi so beautiful. Hopefully some is relatable to others, for poets share their experiences, emotions. ππ
