my oldest son is playin’ violin
on campus today
meetin’ extended family there
listening to music played by children
in concert
from the newest musicians
to more experienced
they save the best for last
this is my sons third year
his first concert with Papa’s violin
from my father, to my son
passed hand to hand
skipping a generation
that boy has music
in his heart and soul
I catch him humming
and playing air violin
after practicing
lookin’ forward to a toe tappin’
heart swelling with love
kind of day
it’s concert day
