The delight of beginner musicians 
Earnestly counting 
Tapping their converse and sneakers 
Remembering how to move their fingers across the keys 
Over the strings 
Connecting the dots on the page
To the sounds of their instruments 
Each. Note. Played. With. Equal. Importance
(Phrasing a skill yet to be mastered)
The enthusiasm of their teachers
Look how far they've come!
