Fur Elise Again.

I sit at my computer

And it happens once more,

A piece of music is played,

A piece that I know,

I know so well,

I have even played it,

Played it on the piano

Back in my youthful days.

But why is it,

Why is it today

That I have to stop,

Just stop and listen.

The music drags me in,

Drags me into its wonder.

I just stop and listen

And so many memories come,

Come back from my childhood.

Watching my dad play,

Play the piano.

My Dad the one who brought music,

Brought music into my life.

All types of music he listened to

And I have become him,

Become him in my love,

My love of music.

These wonderful memories,

Of one of Nature’s gentlemen

Bringing such glory to my life.

He passed many years ago

But I see him every day,

Every day as I look in the mirror.

Such beautiful memories came back,

Came back this day

All because of Beethoven,

All because of Beethoven’s feelings,

Feelings for Elise.
