Good write Gold.
I was about and about. I took me coat off even, first thing, then put it on again for the rain, passing the deserted croquet club. Doh!

Fur Elise Again.
Rozina said:

Your poem brought back many happy memories. Beautiful. 1 of the pieces I could play a little bit, the first part. Loved listening to this. My father tried to learn the violin when he was older but passed away before too long.

Michael Edwards said:

Yes a great piece of music - my Dad intoduced me to The Nutcracker suite which triggered my love of classical music. Like you the memories come flooding back.

Andy, you and your dad share something very special. And the music is only the beginning of it. Your dad would be proud. 😉

Paul Bell said:

Isn\'t music amazing, you can\'t remember where you put the car keys, but as soon as a bit of music comes on, you\'re transported back to another time and place.

That\'s interesting information. I have heard Scottish bagpipes. Quite like the sound.

Bag O\' Pipes.
dusk arising said:

Hmm theres something special about the ear which appreciates the sound of those droning bagpipes. Whatever that specialness is completely eludes me.
Can you imagine chet and Jerry Mulligan dueting but with Jerry on bagpipes... what? you have a headache already just contemplating it. OK if you want a real ear twister listen to Eric Dolphy soloing in bebop on a bass clarinet. Have some paracetamol to hand.

Wonderful jazz musician and a fitting tribute to him in your poetic lines.

Chet Is There.
Bella Shepard said:

It is truly amazing what music can invoke in us. A favorite artist or song can take us to a wonderful place of peace, memory, that can give us solace and make us smile. I know that you will be smiling for many years to come with wonderful music in your heart. A lovely homage.

Chet Is There.
dusk arising said:

Chet lived an amazing life that was tortured by his drug addiction. His music speaks for itself but to me the most amazing things about him are the obstacles he overcame to rise to the absolute heights of his career.
And then there is his singing voice which in his advancing years took on a meloncholy grittyness. Pathos which reaches deep into one\'s own blue places.

R.I.P Chet. He\'ll trumpet all night long and whisper us to bed

Unescapable fate. A spooky one.

I Am Behind You.
dusk arising said:

Bloody stalkers! I saw you in Tesco\'s hiding behind the frozen peas then craftily peeping out of some festering sliced ham in the reduced rack.

Good to see you throwing poetic knifes of horror and haunting at us - and don\'t you do it well. Spooky.

Brilliant!

ever-present, but
