Rhonda Johnson-Saunders Poet Verse

Blues

Blues



Blues     in a sky of   blue

billow  from lonesome      grooves

Brother   your lone harp           weeps

Bandage   my wounds        soul deep
 
Belt out      that heartache                 please

Bring me         down         to my knees

beside these       Christmas                blues
