Keyboard Aching

When my hands stopped working for a while I stopped playing the piano.

When I started playing again, before the hands started working well, 

I discovered something amazing.

I could forget my discomfort when engaged in something beautiful.

Or even simply interesting.

Or just engaging, or challenging.

Or nice.

Or even anything, anything at all.

Engaged in anything, anything at all, and I'd forget for a while that I ached.

Now my hands work again, and thought there is still pain, I remember now and then to play.
