IN THE KEY OF F

In the Key of F

Ever in Falsetto a softened response

Always melodious and smooth as velvet crème

 

In The Key of F

Descends the baritone responding in vocal timber

Low and cool

Viscous with plenty of reverb.

 

In the Key of F

A Piccatta of note-play strutting in apparent display

All in color that appears to be descending

Off - scale in sharp reflections

Denoted and almost out of control.

 

In the Key of F

A sonata belle fresh

In sequence an almost delicate repast of perfectly timed silence

In sequence the pause

In tension the vibrato

As it resonates enveloping in a simple embrace - sounding

At minimum compromised yet essentially complete in and of itself

A French Horn in spoken form - sounding

Implies balance and movement in time - sounding

Tonal sequence followed with a floral infusion - sounding

A multi - keyed fragrance

Informal

Yet Succulent

Still Sublime

In the Key of F
