The Busker
Down the road I heard a busker singing
he had a rough voice
it reminded me of a mule...

Premium Member Bin Busker
A musician with debts yet to pay
In a bin, he sat, busking away
He played in the trash
While in came the cash
All was fine; 'till they rolled him away!...

The Busker
Woeful 

Rueful 

Joyful 

Hopeful

Though he looked so woeful, rueful, pained
his music was joyful, hopeful, famed.

Made a scared and chilly, tingly me.

Ode To the Busker
Fearless is the busker
Who sings and plays guitar
Relaxing and melodic
En route to be a star.
An effortless performance
Such quality on display
The ambience uplifting
To brighten up this day.
Shoppers stop and listen
To tunes they hold so dear
The charming friendly busker
Whose talent is so clear....

The Melody
A different song
enters the symphony hall,
It's not an aria or a choral work,
it's much bigger,
it fills the auditorium.

Outside, on the street,
a busker plays his pennywhistle.

The orchestra and its singers
cease to study scores and song sheets...
pause to listen,

Entranced,
they let the music play on,
through the one throat
of the All....
