She carefully put the mouthpiece
to her lips
and blew gently
her warm breath filling the barrel,
while her fingers pressed lower down
to raise a deep note
circulating the air
so that the blackwood swelled
giving a higher note
the instrument now ready.

This is wonderful. So alliterative! Do you play the clarinet, Paul? I played for a lot of years when I was younger.
Blessings to you.

No, I learned recorder in junior school for a while. My youngest plays saxophone, and several friends play clarinet.
