Rain sodden corpse, in a churchyard. Abandoned, unclaimed, slowly decay setting in.
Once you wowed audiences. Your music had couples dancing, romancing. Many a love was born as you filled the air with melodies sweet.
Now your heart is still. No more tunes will eminate from your once mighty chest.
An old piano, your notes immovable, choked with rain water, you stand by the church, sadly waiting to be taken away.
(On Thursday 2 October my mum, her partner and I came across an abandoned piano, in the church close to my home. When first discovered it still worked. However due to heavy rain the piano’s notes are now immovable. How the instrument came to be in the churchyard I have no idea but, at time of writing it remains there).
A nice epitaph Kevin 🙂
Thanks Chris. It is a pity I couldn’t get a photograph of the piano to accompany the post. Kevin
Sometimes it’s better to remember people as they were in their prime not as they were like when they passed on – you could say the same for that piano 🙂
You make a good point Chris. Kevin
