One Shot Wednesday Week # 42~
Old Guitar
strings pluck out a lonesome tune
from the musty eaves above
couples who just met at noon
will tonight believe in love
sweetest shackles bind her heart
to them she's forever true
old guitar sure does his part
when her soul falls into blue

Loving this one :) I love all things musical and this is sweet and lyrical :)
the music of love, the music of heartbreak...the guitar is good for both...nice rhyme play
...old guitar sure does his part
when her soul falls into blue...
...like these lines and this piece. (^_^)
Love it from the start...somehow I'm hearing Hank Williams moaning 'I'm so lonesome I could cry' maybe it's the 'lonesome tune'
or perhaps the way the:
"old guitar sure does his part
when her soul falls into blue..."
Either way. loved it. Thanks.

And I do know some blues.
