lyrics

How I Speak
(For Diane Moser)

So this is how I speak,
White and black keys
articulating my story
ascending rhythms,
notes rising to my mother,
the woman who raised me,
loved me and heard
my plea for a piano,
placed in a small space,
to become my
intimate roommate,
my playmate, my companion,
my confessor and my communicator.

Like Morse, I tap out my code,
creating harmonic messages
that pulse from my fingers,
conveyed on air, vibrating
through space and time
to say what needs to be said.

– Marilyn Mohr, July 30, 2005
