THE ATO Z CHALLENGE 2015: G IS FOR GUITAR MAN:

 WELCOME TO THE SEVENTH LETTER
OF THE A TO Z CHALLENGE:
MY THEME IS TO CHOOSE A SONG TITLE
THEN WRITE MY OWN POEM:

G IS FOR GUITAR MAN
RECORDED BY DUANE EDDY:
 He plays the guitar with gusto,
After a long hard day.
It's his way of relaxing,
As he strums his guitar away.

I've heard he's very good.
Though I've never heard him play.
I know not what he looks like,
But perhaps one day.....one day?

He is an author of great renown,
The "Birth" of another book today.
I wish him all the very best.
As he strums his guitar away.

Who knows he may record a sample,
Of how good he really plays
The Guitar Man of The Carolina's
 kind to all bloggers who passes his way.

  7. Lovely poem, Yvonne. My son has a guitar and I've tried to play it. Haha. Not successfully. I love guitar music though. Think I'll stay with my piano.
