G Sharp 7

Left slack at the edge of the violin,
an afterthought of gut and wire,
waiting for the bow that never descends.

Every note passes overhead
like birds stitching the sky.
The hollow body drinks their chorus,
yet no song grows inside this wood.

Ears open in the varnish,
dark mouths swallowing everything unfinished—
a concerto of failures,
a catalogue of unsung hours.

Different, always different,
not melody but margin,
not hand but handle.

Still the silence hums,
a taut ghost trembling
whenever others are touched.

What music it might have been
clings like rosin to the air,
faint, impossible,
vanishing before it begins.

Chug Cramproll made his heelstand in Buffalou so the story goes.
He sprinkledd sand on a surface
and made percussion sounds to the amazment of an audeince.
The song "Mumbled" was used as his entrance theme.
It's beleived it was remixed to the standards
of Modern sounds to have
a edgey Urban feel. " Jive Talking" Cat Vamp was said to be his manager.
"Scatt " and Bebop accompanied them to the ring. Off the wire these sounds like 
"oh-be Doo-Bee" with some "ahh-you ahh's"
the debutting sounds of reasons.
So Right" and Yubbia Yubbah"
modern talking swing grooves.
When asked about that debut he said
" I'm a fool to want you: you know
that's life: thats the way it's gotta be!"
Where's that Crooner man; WWhere's that Crooner?"
Zu Du-dum: ooh we!
ahh wee ah!
OOh-wee!

the waiting

beside the old chair
my guitar waits in stillness
strings asleep in dust
the moment my fingers reach
the silence bends into sound

the voice

a low trembling voice
rises from its wooden chest
shaping all my hours
midnight sorrow braided through
with the thread of restless hope

the afterglow

when the song drifts off
its breath remains inside me
soft as ember-glow
guiding me to start again
with a heart that learns to heal

Premium Member If I had a Guitar

If I had a guitar and I knew how to play
I’d be on tour, playing music all loud and gay
I would have a fan base that would be yelling my name
None of my fine renditions would be the same
I would seriously pluck those strings in the fanciest way
if I had a guitar and I knew how to play

Premium Member How the Heart Forges

I wake—
each dawn
a slender promise
shoulders gilded,
by hesitant sun.

The world, wide as longing
real as the air I breathe—
crests of mountains waiting
horizons keeping their counsel.

My heart, uncertain…. ventures
like a melodic wind carried on—
searching for a sign
where wonder grows wild within.

Between the strums of my old guitar
and laughter in morning dew
I surrender:

each note of yesteryear
kindles today’s quiet lesson

A single osprey rises—
a brushstroke across blue morning
its wings folding around me.

The summit is not a distant peak—
but something brightening inside

Love lays a quiet hand
on places still becoming
healing as patient
as a meadow’s slow green showing

Each blade a testimony
to what endures.

From deep inside me,
between the first prayer
and the stillness after waking,
I find myself turning—
in the rhythm of becoming

the quiet rhyme
of being.

So I walk—
with songs for company
promises for courage

letting the day reveal its poem
one grateful step
where hunger and holiness
are the same ground.

Lake of Blue

JANUARY 2024

Hello, person.
My person, who bathes and drifts in the steaming lake of blue
And chirps a melody of solitude
While strumming the oak guitar for the blaze.

Hello to you--
If you want to hear my thoughts.

My person, whose eyes bleed of the weeping willow's dye,
Who holds the warmth of the stars in their skin,
Who holds the wisps of frail roots in their hair,
Lashes swooping down like evergreen branches.

Hello, person
Who goes with the tide
And lets the moon take them whichever which way
When the blaze does rest and can't guide you any longer.
Hello, person
Who gets washed ashore.
Who loses themself.

Hello, to you--
If you'd like to stay a while.

Guitar on His Back

No money he had, just guitar on his back
he took to the roads as the evening turned black
he said no goodbyes to all that he knew
and never looked back to his love that was true

his path followed rivers and fern covered hills
and his eyes looked ahead over fields and mills
he'll take his guitar and let songs pay his way
and he'll look for his fortune what ever they say

so he went through the valley and a town he did stay
and sang for his supper for many a day
but he could not forget of his love left behind
and how true that she was and so loving and kind

so back to the path climbed the fern covered hills
to see if his love would be waiting there still
and when he returned it was not as expected
she'd found a new love, and now felt rejected

so with no money he had,  took guitar on his back
and took to the roads but his confidence lacked
no one goodbyes and nothing left that he owned
but kept looking back to his love ,  to the love,  she once shown.

Premium Member Heartstrings

His fingers flew like hummingbirds 
across his old guitar 
as he played his wordless melody 
in the shadows of the bar. 

Suddenly the crowd was still 
as every ear tuned in 
to hear the song without the words 
that sang itself to him. 

But someone in the shadows listened 
deep within her heart 
and heard each silent word 
his strings intended to impart. 

Then, when the lights came up again 
he hushed his old guitar, 
and as her misty eyes met his, 
he embraced her from afar.

Premium Member I Breathe You In: 300

As the ethereal guitar mesmerises
My soul responds
As if I dipped into a melodic bath
Of perfectly curated
Lovingly tempered 
Heart massaging
Candle flickering 
Water 

A fragrant tune invades 
My nostrils 
Flaring as the warm
Moistened air tumbles by
The world merges into
Perfection
Harmony
Stirring

The resonance
Of childhood memory
Percolating through the mist
As sliding strings 
Caress my ears
My mind drifting
Towards that past
Safer place

Yet this mesmerising medication
This tuneful tumult quelling
Perfect prescription
Is deeply welcome
Somewhere in my gut
My true being
Soothed as we surrender
To this soulful sabbath

May you never grow old
At the joyful table
Where your soul dines
Hear the whispers
Of the small pleasures
Taste the fermented flavours
Of the ordinary delights
Using all your available senses

When the music plays
To transport you
Run to catch the moment
Soak in the vapour
Embibe the elixir
Breathe it all in deeply
Holding in gratitude
Each heavenly moment

Premium Member System Overload Rondine Back To The Future Tribute

Woahhh.. rock and roll. Definitely.
The system may just overload. 
A lead foot going down the road. 
Soft, a bit smooth? Not remotely. 
That sound broke apart inside me,
hearing the guitar my pulse slowed. 
Woahhh.. rock and roll. 
Man that vibrates, this is heavy. 
Music defined by that zip code,
with every lyric  those roots showed. 
It can  take you back easily,
woahhh.. rock and roll.
