I see you there Waiting in the dark When I get home Begging to be held Just one more time To remember the other times You have never deserted me Left me alone in my pain It was always you Who kept me sane And sober when the nights turned Colder than the deepest winter chill My solice My heart My soul Singing my emotions When myself wasn't sure What the morning's light would bring My Faithful Friend Asking naught but a chance To sing again And to bring comfort To my weary mind Imagine all the People living life in peace... |

I love guitars. There was a time, when I attemted to learn how to play one. But, I got frustrated and quit. After buying about five. LOL! And gee, I can't play even one. |

Thank you for all the kind words. For all of those that understand, I am currently abusing a Yamaha acousic, a Ringo electric (I built it) and an Ibanez bass... With all of the musical talent on here, we have GOT to do that musical project that was being threatened back a month ago!  BTW, Sue, I know the guitartabs site well... Thanks for the link. Imagine all the People living life in peace... |

That was great... I feel the same way about my violin. I swear I wouldn't be alive if music hadn't been there for me many years... Amazing the affect... Failure isn't failure if a lesson from it is learned ~ KS |

I love this. I have a guitar. I got it for a gift from my late husband because he wanted me to be able to play my own music while I sing. I've sang in different quartets for many years. He wanted me to sing more solos, though. I really relate to music and understand completely, though I still haven't mastered the guitar the way I want to.

Ringo? Brad-dude? My Brotha! I'm IN!!! I've got a nice little Takamine, built-in pick-up, and great action--they say the guitar reflects the owner's personality--  but, I find that guitars inspire the most loverly-like responses in people, afterall? you spend HOURS holding them, and stroking them, and, and, should I shaddup now? (figured I should before I got to the joys of a whammy bar)  Loved this. (couldya tell?) |

Musical instruments become really like friends. You say it beautifully. I have a piano and I cherish it, even though I neglect it totally .....but one day I'll begin again. It's there waiting ... Love, Margherita |

Marg you bring up a good point. No matter how we treat our music, how we abuse it, how much we ignore it, etc... it is always there for us to come back to. Waiting like an old friend.... and it's like riding a bike ;-) SO, hurry up and touch those keys again!!!!! Failure isn't failure if a lesson from it is learned ~ KS |

Boy, I just love my guitar for me creating a new riff or song is just what i need to express my emotions. It's just a great thing to do in my free time, it has never let me down or left me. Good write Ringo! Randy Meador |
