Picking on myself.

 A GUITAR

 

I love to listen to a guitar,

As it’s being played.

With just some simple strings,

There’s music to be made.

 

I have my guitar heroes,

In country, rock and blues.

I wish I could play like them,

And stand in their shoes.

 

Alas, I have no talent.

I’ll never be a star.

When it comes to making music,

I can’t even play an air guitar.

I hope I can do the song justice, come Sunday, have a great day, hugs xo

That air guitar failure is a real downer. But your poems make fine lyrics that can be some by the likes of comedic singers and take you far. All you have to do is hook up with one.

Like Ed says somebody has to, "shovel it."

I failed at the tuba, the clarinet, the piano, and the guitar. Then I picked up the pen, and I've been shoveling sh*t like Shineola ever since.

Ahhh . . . That's a darn shame, Michael, I am an expert air guitarist.
