Piano Rain

By Vi Ransel

Another jazz poem... This time for piano.

::::::::

Piano Rain
  
 
Cut-crystal 16th notes
scamper and dangle
drop
splink
twinkly-plink
splank
spangle

mingle and dance
in a pool of window panes

disentangle

fingers wrangle piano lingo
from a hip Little Dipper
tickle ivory dimples
that dive and make ripples
in the Tiffanypizzazzangle
cascade
which
is
jazz.......
