Instrumental Speech

Strumming the guitar,
His soul speaks through every riff:
Dialogue of strings.

Very well written Senryu. One can just about hear the speech of the guitar strings. Thanks for sharing. Happy new year! Caroline.

Perhaps you also play, Raul? I hear your love of music in your poetry....and assume you write about B.B.King here....with wistful thoughts of your own tune? Just wondering....

Who is this person on the guitar? Is it BBKing? Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
