on the music stand
Bach's preludes and fugues
rock through our son's door
his cellphone
the new dinner bell
mealtime music
Sinatra on low
put your dreams away
teen siblings in the car
squabbling
over which music station
father looks over his shoulder
the sudden quiet in the backseat
before bedtime
at the piano…
a Chopin nocturne
Jo Balistreri and Wilda Morris
