Flugelhorn
The Flugelhorn’s not a copycat
(But you already do know that)
Not a trumpet or cornet
Or a curvy French Horn-et
Distinctive and unique
It has its own mystique..
The Flugelhorn can choose
A jazz tune or the blues
With a certainty of style
That makes me want to nod
And smile...

Renaissance Girls
Sophie and I
Are jubilant and excited
‘Cause we ordered some DVDs
That were speedily expedited...
“HBO presents Classical Baby”
For Music, Art, Dance
And poetry!
We’re not leaving anything to chance!
Now there never was a doubt
Renaissance girls,
That’s what we’re all about!
So we’re off for some viewing
As our artistic lives
We are pursuing.....

Art Is Instrumental
Favorite Things
Molly and Ozzie and Sophie and me
Comfy and cozy
And ready to read
Satin hemmed blankets
Tugged up to our chins
These and much more are our favorite things...
Cabled wool sweaters
Are just right for me
Fleece is much better
For Sophie’s soft cheek
Long runs and brisk walks
Short stories and long talks
Warm milk for Sophie
And sweet tea for me....
Mozart and Beethoven
Bach and Bartok
Dancing and singing
To classics and pop
Playing the French Horn
I liked that a lot
These and much more
Are our favorite things.....
When cold winds blow
And the skies snow
And we get the blues
We pick up our brushes
Our paper and paints
And paint till those blues
We loose!

Drummer’s Dilemma
There’s drums a-plenty
For the drumming fanatic
From the triplet set’s least
To the bass drum, that beast,
The choices never cease!
With notes so sporadic
And sometimes exotic
It can be hypnotic
But always drum-atic!

Dynamic Duo
That’s the name
The violin and piano
Were given in their fame
They play well together
Then each plays alone
One plucks and bows
The other strikes keys for tones
With fervent fingers flying
Over keyboard and bridge
The audience is left sighing
Applauding all that they did!

The French Conundrum
The French Horn is happy
Wherever it plays
From Woodwinds and Brass
To the Strings with such class.
Yes, the instruments agree
That it’s sound does so please.
And most of the time
The horn is quite amiable.
But it can get unruly
And downright unplayable!

Going Solo
The horn stands alone
Neither lost nor forlorn
Just a confident fellow
Shining outside
Inside, mellow.
Its song is melodious
With high notes that soar
But can be quite odious
When notes don’t sound sure
One thing is certain
With a rising stage curtain
The horn likes to play
The solos he’s given
In a most excellent way!
