Celtic Jam Fiddler

Rated "G" by the Author.

The young man I wrote this for went on to win the young fiddlers' competition in Ireland.

Young fiddler
With tunes in his head
And fingers like a spider
Weaving songs;
His bow spinning
Webs of music
For my reeling toes
To jig in
Music's breeze.

Ohmygod! Great imagery and congrats to the fiddler (Do you know the Irish group, THE ELDERS?)
