• cello, celli, cellos by sallycello (Sally Rosoff)

 

A cello's but one of a section

Of celli; that makes a collection

Of cellos all playing

(Some moving, some swaying)

Together, in search of perfection.

• cello by sallycello (Sally Rosoff)

 

The sonorous tones of the cello

Evoke love songs, warm, languid and mellow.

But it's also eclectic —

When the music gets hectic

It can let out a pretty fierce bellow.

• cello by sallycello (Sally Rosoff)

 

When walking onstage with the cello,

My body starts turning to jello.

My palms are all sweaty,

My legs like spaghetti —

I must tune out my fear and get mellow.

• cello by Dottie

What a troublesome, noisy young fellow!

You exuberant boy, must you bellow?

Make a mellower sound:

Gentle, velvety, round—

Could you try to be more like a cello?

Add your own limericks!
