Hope plays
Hope plays
violin
with
style
gusto
verve
passion
heart
love
with Judy
and Jo
Helen
and Phillipa
David
and many others
with
a wry
cheeky
arched-eyebrow smile
with
The Stiletto Sisters
The Persephone Project
My Friend The Chocolate Cake
and many others
with
a cloth
under her chin
between
flesh
and wood
with gypsy clothes
and gypsy flair
with
the strings
living for the touch
of her loving fingers
with
the bow
and its hairs
coursing
a bridge
to sounds
that soothe and cry and dance
Hope plays
