Confetti Time

Once upon a tiny time

Someplace not far away,

There lived a Tess who liked

To play piano all the day.

She tinkled with her merry hands

(And sometimes with her toes),

But could not work out how to tap

The keys with just her nose.

Then one day out of Bluesville

Came this thing, there came a Joc,

And he was just the one to teach her

How to play her schnoz.

He walked up to the Tess and on her

Chair himself did plant,

He looked at her and told her

That he did not want her saying “can’t”.

He took her by the hand and said

She should not be afraid:

“It’s not so scary once you have a
Joc to show the way.”

“Just bend your head down really low,”

Said this blonde thing to her,

And so she did but sadly Tess

Just could not make it work.

“I don’t know how,” she said to him,

“To reach those silly keys,

With just my nose - impossible!

Could you please show me, please?”

The Joc just smiled and said “Of course,

I’d do it just for you.

And not just this, but anything;

One’s not as tough as two.”

And so the Tessa and the Joc,

Sat cosy on the stool,

They bent their noses super-low

And played a happy tune.

They tinkled softly through the night

(Much louder in the day),

And playing piano with the nose
Did now just seem the only way.

And so, when one plus one makes two

Then everybody wins,

And here my story ends, you see,

But theirs? It just begins.
