The Music Man

At eases rest, he sits waiting, The guitarist. Withered arthritic hands, Shake now. His study gaze strains, To read the noted page. Thoughts drifting, pondering, A gentler pace. Reflections pause, amongst, Remembrance still waters. Life's forgotten rambler, Traveling along destiny’s, Long lost highways. Castaways absent player, In limbos mindless game. A migrant hobo, Leaving reality's seasonal, Venues behind. God's harvest lies beyond, In glories golden fields. No lyrics express liberation’s, Abandonment, freedoms release, From pains well worn shell. Lifted above griefs, loving kindred, Peal away regrets many veils, Layer by layer exposing, Destiny's beauty in misty hews. A new adventure begins, On horizons, magnificent canvas, Behold a grand expanse. A spirit soars, following an Everlasting light. It is peace without expression, Mankind’s ultimate fulfillment, And loves final achievement. Celebrations joy receives salvation's, Lost lamb. In hymens sacred choir he'll join in, Playing God's gospel, angel's voices, Are raised in praise. Strumming at his best, Within divinities, Heavenly band. Sweet melodies song echoes, Beneath stars shinning light. The music man smiles, I've finally come home at last. BY: CHERYL ANNA DUNN
