His guitar

Tony36

He sits on the sidewalk playing his guitar 

While people pass by

Some have stopped to listen

Placing money in the case at his feet

 

Off and on others join him bringing 

Horns

Flutes

Drum

Guitars

And other instruments 

But most of the time he has played alone

 

He has had gigs

Weddings

Libraries 

Bars of coarse

 

He likes playing out in the open

Watching the people pass by

He has made friends with some of them

 

His music is like poetry in their ears

The lyrics he wrote himself

Songs that touch on every fabric of humanity 

 

Here he plays

Here he sings

To those who listen

 

A man of the world

A man and his music

A man and his guitar

    The picture painted of a flash concert and a man that plays from his heart as a street performer. Nice

              Music is his world Tony. There are so many fine players to be heard on the streets.
