Beethoven was a wise man...



Sometimes the only thing to adequately describe life is an optimistic piano piece. Though there are hints of sad sentimentality in the transient chords, there is a simplistic happiness all around. An innocence that can only be described as nimble fingers skip across cold keys is what this moment is. As I look out into the slushy and ice-covered streets, I hear a phantom piano. The flickering of the traffic lights coordinating with the tempo of the unknown but deeply familiar song. I can only sing along as I stand there and smile.


Inspired by "Pink and Glitter" by Tori Amos
