Strings Theory by Richard Guimond

Musician wannabee

Strings Theory by Richard Guimond ©2015

I wish I could pluck vibrating strings

From a harp, a lyre or a dulcimer

A mauresque luth from Tunisia

A gypsy flamenco guitar from Iberia

An Italian mandolin from Campania

All the rainbow tones, Russian balalaika,

A celestial Sitar from mysterious India

A multi-stringed Koto from the Rising Sun

A Hawaian ukulele just for the sheer fun

An electrodes laden instrument from California

A worn out banjo from Southern Appalachia 

A bottle neck guitar from the heart of Georgia 

A steel finger one from the bayous of Louisiana
