I’d love to write music and conjure a song But each time I try, the thing turns out wrong I haven’t a talent or gift to design A wonderful vocal that I could call mine The notes aren’t in English and cords lose their way I haven’t the faintest of what they might say And as for the tools I could use as my trade The sound of frustration is all that I’ve made I once learnt guitar, for a week, maybe two I wished that I’d learnt what a few more could do For all of the sounds that I play cause concern A trait of impatience and why I don’t learn I wish that the music and notes would all come I’ve waited and waited, but still there is none I sang in the car at the top of my voice But no one would listen when given the choice I know that the song that I sing will be mine Though each sound I make is so raw in design But nothing will stop what I yearn and I crave The song of a poet, to sing to the grave [This message has been edited by Rick (07-17-2006 08:41 AM).] |

Raw form, like coal produces a new heat... and diamonds. Sing away, Rick. We're listening!  |

Rick~ Sometimes the music stays just out of reach until that chasm of doubt is breeched~ Then it will come filling your heart with song Hoping when it does you'll let us sing along~ *HUGLETS*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
