My entry for #String, Macro Mondays' theme for October 19, 2020.

Just seems I can't ever get enough of music - and today I just learned that Etta James passed away. "At Last", is just one of my all time favorites.....

From June 14

ArtPrize has begun...went downtown last night for a couple hours. This painting of Billy Strings, (bluegrass musician) was at Palatte Coffee and Art. The artist, Michi Farias and her parents own the coffee shop and are artists themselves. My husband and I saw Billy perform at Meijer Gardens in 2015. Michi's painting is so well done!!!

Alex's new violin. Here's the cool thing. As I was loading this to post he just shouted out from his bedroom that he had just read an email saying that he passed his audition to play in the next higher level orchestra at Duke Strings School this year. Exciting news for this young man.

A Macro Mondays submission on the topic Musical Instruments. Guitar strings in closeup looking like some form of heavy engineering.

No strings attached

 

To open the mind is to free the mind,

let the senses run free

and wild, if need be

for the pleasure is bound within a heart defined

 

to pass through these gnawing days

turning everything around

loosening all strings now unbound

under this Midas light of praise

 

to see beyond the elements we touch daily;

the rank and file of medial hysteria -

society's purveyance of our living area

now we part with the life lived so literally

 

to induce peace over the horrid reign of torrid pain

cranking up the life-flow

stoking-up the fire's glow

a heart is at pains to appease it's own dutiful strain

 

to give another chance to the life you wish to lead

unblenchingly positive from day one

high on the beautiful life just begun

with it's time-saving message to precede

 

to be the pleasure-seeking warrior of your own dreams

witness the fact in your own eyes

observe a today that tomorrow no longer denies

by rights, by virtues, by way of the optimism it redeems.

these hammers and strings

been following me around

from a box filled garage

through the snow, dirt, and sands,

its just that i got nowhere to hide,

I played a littlebit with my smartphone camera and my camera to make some pictures with nice bokeh, fantastic :-)
