Harmonica ********* An instrument of sad hobos, cowboys, prisoners, and loners everywhere, you wail the heartache of long lost love, long lost horizons, and long lost freedom. You become the lips, voice, soul - the very essence of the lives of the lonely - when they need you. Calling a dingy pocket your home, and a loner your only friend, you keep on crying out the sad, sad songs without a single complaint. I thank you for the understanding companionship. |

Wonderful write! I am always moved to tears when I hear the melancholic sounds of a harmonica, since I was a child. Love, Margherita |
