Visionary Blues

Sounding so sweet 
the blues singer
   hits notes
which resound in the heart
       Feel the empathy
       Touch the deep resonating
chords with your mind
    as you hear her
pour out her reality
      The sound of the blues
is the sound of pain
It is bitter tears
transformed into melody
     One can almost taste
those tears
when blues are sung with feeling
