A GIRL AND HER GUITAR

A GIRL AND HER GUITAR

She perches her slight frame on the high backed chair
Cascading down her back she shakes out her long blonde hair
Steadying herself by the tips of her knee length boots
Her hands on the guitar strings she strums a few notes

She looks up and out towards her audience as they wait
In eager anticipation until the first note rings out
She has them spellbound, entranced and enthralled
Whether it’s a small room in a pub or a grand hall

She loves what she does, she pays her dues
Her voice is delicious with strong golden hues
From nine to ninety they come and watch in wonder
This slip of a girl, a glint in her eye, a tinkle of laughter

She captures powerful emotions as she hits the soaring notes
Sending shivers of thrills down their backs with quivers of delight
She transports her audience into dreams of the past or the future
A beautiful angel of song, the wonderful miracle of a daughter.
