Matthew Anish Poet Blank verse

Gershwin

Exciting visions
  of the urban scene
captured in music
    Joyous notes
that is Gershwin
   My father passed away 4 years ago
He used to thrill us with his piano 
   he played the jazz master's work 
miss the man so much

Andrea Dietrich January 27, 2014 at 7:33 PM I bet Gershwin brings you such good memories of your father. Yes, I recall when you wrote poems for your father, Matt.
