Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd Tribute)

by Jeff Mason — Read all 207 poems by Jeff Mason

My original sketch of the album cover was too large; so please forgive that I had to stitch it as two scanned images. I did the drawing in charcoal and pastel.

You are a fantabulous writer Jeff. 'Wish you were here' is one of my all-time favs, oh yeah and 'comfortably numb' and 'us and them'. OK, OK, you got me now, I've gotta put it on. lol

You know, I write some poetry with hidden messages but I don't tell or make it known which is which. lol I have a very mean one in my book and 'He' doesn't have a clue. I'm bad! ;)

AWESOME Jeff,

I am a huge fan of PF and think their music is true poetry.
I loved this line
"Helplessly I sit here and I watch with mirrored eyes --
Endless worlds, as they’re created, for no purpose save that they may be destroyed"
Thanks for pointing me the way here.

Wow...standing ovation, Jeff! This is an awesome tribute. Being a fan of all the same music and much of the same writings, I appreciate this more than you know. Bravo...well written! By the way, I have seen Pink Floyd perform three times...awesome!

Cheers!

You did good Jeff!!! Those who appreciate the Floyd find an ageless collection of music. The words behind the music are as strong as the music itself, as is your poem.

"Every touch and every sound
Rebound as echoes, floating down -- into a mindless, numbing --
Evil void"

These words I have chosen above give truth to all you have stated. We must fill that void, whether will song or verse. It will keep us strong and filled with life. Shine on, Jeff, Shine on.

If you've done more sketches, I'm sure everyone would like to see them. Exposure is everything.

Well thanks Jeff! How did you know I liked the Dark Side of the Mo0n, and many more of their songs. Hey, are you in there?
Man Jeff, keep up some sketching. Your sketch is terrific.
Most of my sketches here on ad are quick ones. I should work on doing some better sketches?
Thanks for this Jeff.......Have a great day or night Standing in the Hall. A little Floyd humor?
