Weekending

 

With the advent of the piano,

brought by Chris's awesome family

all the way from Ohio 

(his grandmother's piano,

a beloved heirloom for him)

we celebrated with what will be

the first of many house concerts:

several guitars, piano, banjo, mandolin,

folk and classical

musicians alike singing and playing together,

from two to seventy-two. 

Rockytop Tennessee, much Hank Williams,

Horse with No Name,

Rock Me Mama Like a Wagon Wheel,

Blessed Be the Name,

Great is Thy Faithfulness,

I'll Fly Away

was the flavor of this all-inclusive performance.

Add to that a date night

to hear music at our favorite hide-out,

music sung at church and played

for the always-enthusiastic children,

music enjoyed at an open mic 

for students of my studio,

and we can satisfactorily say

that our weekend has been full

of music.
