Ode To My Muse

Do you look into the future and see heaps of gold? 
Or do you do you see yourself scraping up some old green mold? 
Is a baseball visible, or the grand Whitehall? 
Do you look into the future and see anything at all? 
I look into the future and see a black and white thing 
 This thing is my muse, 
The piano I choose. 
I press down the keys, and out comes a sound; 
A sound of true beauty, no impurities found. 
The notes on the page 
Seem to take me away
So soon I engage 
And my whole heart is there
The song is a dance
I’m now in a trance 
The music has got me somehow
And now you can see
The musician in me
For this thing is my muse, the piano I choose.
By Emma
