Andrea Dietrich Poet Quatrain

The Magic Guitarist

The thrumming thrumming thrumming 
can seem so very near
as fingers strumming strumming
make magic that I hear.

Your fine guitar - passionate -
What longing it can bring!
As you stroke the strings of it,
my heart is quivering!

I wait for that resplendence -
melodious and low -
I know will soon commence.
Your sweet words soon will flow.

Your voice which hums, lilts and croons
(forever gorgeously)
a plethora of love tunes,
keeps on bewitching me.

I can’t know just who you are,
but I can feel your glow
as your music with guitar
spills from my radio.

John Posey May 17, 2013 at 5:35 PM This is eerily similar to "A Song Unsung" which points to the same weakness of words and music trying to stand alone... Great job... Hugs... Jake

Kabuteng P.Ink K. May 16, 2013 at 10:44 AM I don't know how to play a guitar but you all the more make me want to learn how to-- isn't it just amazing how others are so talented with guitar playing? And you brought that across so well in your poem here-- this almost sounds like some sort of a song for me, maybe just me though-- really enjoyed how you depicted guitar playing here, Andrea! Hugs to you!

Donna Jones May 15, 2013 at 5:38 PM Oh...sure sounds like top place sounding material Andrea...awesome
