My Piano
	info
Growing up in Western Pennsylvania, I took piano lessons for many years from a kindly old man named Frank Kennedy. Sometime around the age of 12, I started to experience that day-dreamy, out of body sensation that many musicians feel while playing. Even when playing while reading sheet music, Id find myself at the end of a piece and would stop and wonder how I had managed to play the whole piece while thinking about nothing at all. I mentioned this to Mr. Kennedy, and he just smiled and nodded. It wasnt until years later as an adult with grown-up stresses, I realized what a wonderful gift I had been given.to be able to check out at the piano. The only way I can describe this feeling is that its like the experience of new lovethat feeling that nothing else matters in the whole world when youre around the one you love. So I wrote this love song to my beautiful, shiny black baby grand that was a gift from my first and only Love.
