Once again this week, I’m participating in Poetic Thursday with Pam and her two “boys” over at Two Spoiled Cats.
Each Thursday, they provide a photo as inspiration and invite their readers to write a poem, based on the photo, and share it in comments on the blog post the following Thursday.
This was our photo for this week’s inspiration:
The Recital
White dress, hair bow and a booster seat;
A pedal extender for her feet.
Her first recital was a formal affair,
Parents and grandparents were so proud to be there.
She practiced for weeks for this special night
And gave no thought to the dreaded stage fright.
Her performance complete, everyone stood:
“Bravo!” ‘Chopsticks’ never sounded so good!
My poem last week was heartfelt and serious, so this week, I went for something fun. I’m sure this little girl is an accomplished pianist, and I don’t mean to make light of her talent.
Be sure to visit Two Spoiled Cats today to read Angel Sammy’s and their readers’ poems.
