Eternal Muse
music that was lilting
soulful if you will
played with the wink of an eye
that our hearts and ears
found the need to applaud
remnants of the past
could be found in his words
words that revealed times
with fellow troubadours
who squeezed a dollar bill
tighter than their lover’s waist
his bandana spoke of a time
long gone but remembered
when the songs of life
passed through the artist
and found their way
to a listener's palate
leaving a melody to savor
like a fine Merlot
upon the lips
