&quot;I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust noone but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe

I place four fingers down softly.
I pick up my bow.
My arm sways smoothly for two beats.
Four to zero.
One is set swiftly.
Back to four to the right.
Open and gentle swing.
Four once more.
Open to the left.
Then repeat.
I swing my body back and forth.
The rythm thrills me.
I slow my bow and the tune rings on.

I play the cello and so I wrote this poem to show how to play Pachelbel Canon in D, but kept it interesting.
