The Guitar And The Man

The Guitar And The Man

A Poem by Aspiring Angel

 

 

 

 

 








The Guitar And The Man







Picking up guitar
Within withered hands
The man strums melodies
Of distant dreams

No one to hear
Or understand

Upon the wind
His soul doth bleed



As strings are played
The guitar sings
Of sorrows lived
From an early Spring



Sweet music plays
Across the land
As he takes a walk
Down memory lane

With his only
Friend in hand
He sings of his lifetime
Filled with pain



Adrift the peal
Of guitar strings

His song to soul
The same deap peace
As are words placed
By poet's pen



Alluring peace
The guitar brings
To masters hands
That strums the song

Released his voice
Unto the wind
Of dreams now lived
And love now gone





Tis the guitarist
In his own right
That plays
His final song
This night

For long he'd paid
The ticket's price
Within lonely tears
And sacrifice

Welcoming to his heart
What is now God's plan
Eternal sleep
To both guitar and man

As a guitar player..I can appreciate this one very much. Very well done with rythem and rhyme.
You ended it very well as described by guitar girl below. There is much sorrow behind a guitar......
