Image Inspired Essay and Poem - 11/11


                The guitar chimed throughout the music hall as the man on stage strummed its strings with perfect elegance that could only be matched by a well-seasoned musician. With each plucked string, there followed the echoing pop of the strings against the beautiful maple neck, and the room filling sound that put many in a trance. Although this man makes it seem easy, I know that it is anything but, for I have given music a shot of my own, but maybe to those that are successful maybe that’s an analogy for life to them- guitar/music in general requires a great deal of effort, and time with much trial and error, but if you try hard enough and put everything you’ve got into it, the result is absolute happiness. Everyone applauds the man as he resigns his song to an end and begins to pack his things, and takes a bow in front of his now long loyal fans.

                From that day on I made it a goal to never give up on myself and to always keep trying to improve, and no matter how bad my song may sound at the moment, you can always perfect it into something absolutely beautiful.

 

The guitar chimed throughout

The music hall as the man

On stage strummed its strings

With perfect elegance that

Could only be matched  

By a well-seasoned musician.

With each plucked string

There followed the echoing pop of the strings

Against the beautiful maple neck

And the room filling sound

That put many in a trance.

The man makes it seem easy

But I know better

It is anything but easy

But maybe that’s some sort of

Analogy.
