SOUL MUSIC
She only stopped playing when her
arthritis forced her to, but she still dusted the keys and polished every inch each
week.
The piano-tuner still came regularly
too. I remember his dog would sit underneath – a gentle creature.
Then the day after her funeral her
husband banished me to the shed.
Obviously he doesn’t realise a piano
has a soul.
