O the Joy <br />Of brass pedals <br />Under naked feet. <br /> <br />Airy arms <br />And arpeggios. <br /> <br />A bare bottom <br />Nestled in cushion. <br /> <br />The fifth resolving <br />To the tonic, <br />With gin. <br /> <br />Scales mounted <br />Cadences coming. <br /> <br />Pianissimo sounds <br />Caressing scented <br />Flesh. <br /> <br />O the Joy <br />Of playing <br />The piano <br />Naked.<br /><br />David Holbrook<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/makes-perfect/
