SANDBAR PIANO

by Lori Desrosiers

MIAMI (AP) -- A grand piano recently showed up on a sandbar in
Miami's Biscayne Bay, about 200 yards from condominiums on the shore.

Perhaps jellyfish
will learn to play
Bach Cantatas,
or old Diver Dan’s composition:
Seaweed Suite in C minor,
for squid trumpet, piano
and four octopus orchestra.


Lori Desrosiers lives in a big house with a front porch in Westfield, MA and likes to sit and observe the world, then write about it. Her poems have appeared in many reputable publications, including The New Verse News.
