THE CALAMITOUS CELLIST



The Sunday Muse #76

I am a little late to the party this week, but better late than never.
Something a bit different this week.

Thank you once again Carrie, for another thought provoking prompt.

The Calamitous Cellist


Clothing catastrophe cruelly causes classical concert cancellation. 
Cross, celebrated cellist curtails concerto composition, collapsing catastrophically, causing considerable concern.

Confidence curtailed, confused cellist, colouring copiously, cannot continue cello counterpoint, capitulating, categorically ceasing countless creative crotchets. Curtains!!! Crisis!! Crumbs!!

Cackling, cheering, criticising crowd cautiously claps, cello covers cellist's crushing chagrin, causing constant consternation. 

Chivalrous, compassionate conductor cleverly covers crying cellist, ceasing continued confusion, concocting comforting consolation.

    I can see she made the headlines.! I found myself musing on the hard and soft Cs. The difference between plucked strings and bowed perhaps and the hard and soft sounds they create.

    Hi Eddie - just writing to this prompt is pretty amazing, let alone seeing what all the 'ceeees' would come up with as they carouselled through your little caramel cells ... wonderful - really clever. Cheers Hilary

      Thanks Hilary, loved doing it, otherwise it would have had to be a sad poem.
