           “ME AND MY GUITAR”
                         by

                         ~~~~
I have this guitar, a Guild it would be,
        acoustic electric,
                sounds fine to me…
When I strum a chord, its tone is full,
        hearing it when I play,
                and I have to agree…

I’ve tried playing many tunes, but to no avail,
        never sounds right,
                for it just seems to wail…
But when I play those sevenths, and the blues,
        down right funky it is,
                with any rhythm I choose…

So I strum soft chords, playing with my heart,
        many emotions too,
                for both don’t seem to part…
That guitar gets under my skin, deeply inside,
        especially when I play like this,
                those feelings I can’t hide…

It’s just me and my guitar, playing bluesy, and sexy,
        as my body sways back and forth,
                wanting your company…
This instrument of mine, so delicate and graceful,
        then I close my eyes,
                and think only of you…

There's nothing more poetic and romantic than listening to guitar. Enjoyed
