Playing Sir Elton’s piano
by Tony Lobl
In the cacophony
Of St Pancras Station –
Gateway to Europe
And trains heading “North” –
There’s a melody
Pleasing its way
Into our heads.
Easing, its sway
Slows pacing legs
To hear a piano gifted
By the piano man himself;
Beating back
The noise of travellers
Rushing to their holidays
…like so many commuters!
Such a sweet sound
Reminds us,
When the din
Tries to define us,
What we’re created
To be –
A sweet melody,
That rises above the noise.
Melody amidst the cacophony of St Pancras Station, central London
“I wanted to be the melody, Above the noise…”
– Bono, U2, “The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone)”.
Excellent description of thought rising higher and higher from that boundless basis MBE talks about!

Ahhh…”Music, rhythm of head and heart” * Simply wonderful communion! Just think of how many hearts you soothed in passing and on-line. Artists have such generous hearts & appreciative audiences too…. Loving thanks, Davide.
