saxophone


sound of blues ripples on--
smokey tunes blowing hot
sizzling flamed mood...it's jazz!
sax notes intoxicate
swirling like coltraine's grind,
soulful trance whips my breath...
spice of night,   weekend jives!

Nette you've covered a lot of musical sounds possible on this amazing instrument. It's all in who's playing it.

Dear Nette! A great celebration of jazz and the soulful atmosphere! I love the way you evoke the sensations of smokey tunes and sizzling moods, drawing me into that intoxicating world. The imagery of Coltrane's grind and the swirling sax notes feels alive and electric. You’ve captured the essence of a weekend filled with music and joy so beautifully! Spring Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
