LOVER OF CHILDREN by LEONORA SPEYER

First Line: WHEN MY LITTLE GIRL PLAYS BEETHOVEN SONATAS
Last Line: I HEAR A GREAT, RUMBLING BEAUTIFUL ROAR OF LAUGHTER.
Subject(s): CHILDREN; DAUGHTERS; GIRLS; LOVE; CHILDHOOD;
When my little girl plays Beethoven Sonatas,
The big, black, Steinway piano flashes all its teeth at her
In a wide, good-natured grin;
And suddenly
I hear a great, rumbling beautiful roar of laughter.
