Abandoned Piano Looking Out The Window

June 2, 2008 – 7:35 am

 

I wonder if this piano, when new, had been played with sweeping music filling the house with lyrical notes. Or maybe a child was required to practice every day while she looked longingly out the window at the deep prairies.

Signs

January 13, 2008 – 7:00 am
