String Song

December 10, 2008 in Music and Art by the editor | Add a comment

An old tune, anonymous,
plucked from the strings of my guitar,
brings a ghost to life.

Where was the song
these many years? Am I the last
to hear?

Strings and wood cannot contain
it but only serve
to call it forth.

And I must hear and understand.
