LOST MUSIC’S MELODY

Memory is a funny thing…
I can still hear his music ring…
echoing off the wooded hills…
notes that gave me chills…

How sweet was the melody…
whining low… and thrilling me
Wailing blues… so mournful…
proud… loud and wonderful

There is nothing in this world…
nothing that does abound…
nothing in this world… sadder…
than a silent harmonica’s sound…
