      I'm still playing with musical instruments.  I'm wondering if I've gotten too technical this time and think perhaps this one would be more interesting with a metaphor or some onomatopoeia.   What do you think?  Do you take music lessons?  What is your favorite kind of music?  Do you like to sing?  for today's challenge try writing a music poem.  Do have fun.
