Notes About The Poem

8/2/2025 for Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder Poetry Contest sponsored by Crystol Woods

Bob's Voice is Beautiful

Some folks say Dylan writes a good song,
but it's ruined by an ugly voice. 
That's an opinion, so can't be wrong,  
but I wouldn't really go along. 
Bob's versions are my listening choice.

His voice conveys a song's charm and grace, 
expressing its meaning and feeling,
the lyric's essence, his notes do trace
with emphasis in just the right place,
and so, I find Bob's voice appealing.

I agree with your opinion of Bob Dylan...For some reason I liked his voice, perhaps because I was more focused on the lyrics. Enjoyyour evenng, Sara

Thanks, Sara. I've noticed his voice changes around, too, depending on the album. Have a great evening!
