Good one, I will leave you alone with you guitar!
ReplyDeleteThe Dixie chicks sang it best .... cowboy take me away! Your Magpie evokes the image of the rough and tumble wrangler, perched on a log, campfire burning, drinking coffee from a tin cup, crooning the night away.
ReplyDeleteUnder the stars.
The cowboy and his horse.
Stafford,
ReplyDeletec'est tres magnifique!
I loved the idea of musical notes being thought of as "golf clubs." This tongue-in-cheek piece made me laugh...
ReplyDeleteAnother take on "reading" the sheet music. I would like to hear you sing!
ReplyDeletegolf clubs...ha ha
ReplyDeleteI want to hear you sing too Stafford
rough and sensuous I'm sure
No doubt you play be ear! How about trying a plectrum, instead? LOL
ReplyDeleteI, too, am a happy strummer.
ReplyDeletegolf clubs 'n stuff! ... I loved it.
ReplyDeleteHah! Golf clubs indeed. I wish I could play by ear.
ReplyDeleteI cannot read music and damn- I wish I'd seen those golf clubs! hahah!
ReplyDeletethere's a talent, an art to making words into a song, especially when there's no music playing. this you have done! nicely lyrical and fun...
ReplyDeleteI love it and can relate - know a lot of self taught musos who can't read music but who are great anyway. Never thought of them as golf clubs - haha.
ReplyDeleteleave you be...
ReplyDeleteenjoy yourself, nobody is perfect ...
honest and lovely magpie.
keep it up.
:)
golf clubs eh? I can't read music either ;)
ReplyDeletePeople forget the grand cattle stations
ReplyDeleteyou have down there, hundreds of
thousands of acres, and real cowboys
to work them. I never heard much
country music when I was there in
'77, but four months is a drop in
the saddle bag, what?
Another mini-masterpiece, sir.
Personally, I cannot carry a tune
in a bucket, but sometimes I try
anyway.,
All those treble clefs can get a little intimidating!
ReplyDeleteHello, I just wanted to pop in again and thank you for the comment and information you left. This is very helpful to me. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI could hear the sound of the guitar ... great one!
ReplyDeleteClever, witty and absolutely fun - keep the golf clubs off the paper - love it.
ReplyDeleteDon't despise written music. It's great for composers who want to communicate their ideas to conductors, string sections, impresarios etc.
ReplyDeleteGood idea . . . the golf clubs. They're usually birdies perching on the power cables.
A very nice read indeed.. Thank you for sharing this.. :)
