Accidental Poet

As Easy as Breathing

 

A ten-year-old Saxon Weiss

An age when things begin to happen

Inspiration seedlings start to grow

Paths of the heart are starting

 

Journeys through life

Sure to bring a smile

Giving it all you’ve got

Down each and every mile

 

A boy so fortunate

To play the guitar

As easy as breathing

The evolution of a star

 

What I wouldn’t have given

For the talent in that young boy

If that could’ve been me

At his age with a new guitar toy

 

Growing up with music

I learned to like

From the Beatles to Sinatra

Two extremes for a little tyke

 

Love, the usual in music

Romance had all ears listening

Pulled in both directions

But for one my heart was glistening

 

Music had caught my ears

But more so, love caught my heart

Combining the two

Would’ve completed my art

 

Putting music to my words

For Sharon’s heart to hear

Back in the day

When she was here
