Notes About The Poem

Charlie's Fiddle

tribute to Charles Edward Daniels (1936-2020)
 

the devil went down to Georgia
to the demented tune of a million fiddles 
rock 'n roll reflections of greener honey blue grass
the legends of guitar heroes strung mile high
hits across the line to immortality

Timothy Mcguire July 15, 2020 at 6:27 PM I saw him in concert and never saw his face because his hat was pulled down so low. But I knew it was him playing! Line Gauthier July 16, 2020 at 7:51 AM Wow sounds like it was a blast ~ funny about the hat
