Listening: 11-15
The guitar leans in the corner of my room
Collecting dust, and nagging me
Teasing me with tunes not played
Like a child yearning for a playmate
Silent silky strings, soundless, song less
The right notes a treasure in a vault
My fingers have not figured out how to unlock.
Maybe the key to the riches
Is hiding behind more patience, less hurry.
Time to blow off the dust.
