This is one of two poems I wrote last year in December after going to an annual jazz concert that I try not to miss. Jazz is my favourite genre of music, and any time I hear a saxophone I get all excited! Last year’s concert was awesome, as usual, and I was so buzzed that I came home and wrote two poems one after the other before I could relax my mind enough to fall asleep. This is one of these poems.
Improv
(Inspired by Christmas Jazz 2011.12.17)
Play, jazzman, play,
spin notes round, sway
side to side with scatty
rhythms; let drums say
what they will, in
percussionist’s way –
Play, jazzman – play!
Sultry sax sends
shivers down swaying back
I sat, feet flat on floor
keeping time:
rocking waistline
Finger snaps
Claps
Spinning high-hats –
The tin-tin-ti-tin-tink
Transports me, links
soul to body on
