The Musician

He is beautiful,
with his James Dean smile,
his gentle voice,

a powerful voice

trembling bodies

in his presence.

A playful being

most content

with his guitar.

He loves to serenade
anyone who will listen.
Deviously charming,
he's disarming,
with his talent radiating
so brightly,
it's almost blinding.

Possessed by musical notes,

begging for composition,
he's hungry for
musical collaboration.
Like wine,
Intoxicating
those around
with his sound.

Why can't he be here?
His voice will always remain,
preserved in vinyl grooves,
in electronic bits,

singing forever,

shining forever.

His heavenly tunes

reaching from beyond,
forming a bond,

with those who welcome

him in their hearts.

is this poem dedicated to anyone in particular? Looks like you need to begin sending your poems out for publication. Think Writers and Poets Magazine....
