Blow Sweet Melody
Mr. Sunshine steps off to the left
with a wave of his hand,
bowing majestically,
“After you my dear,”
soft tones of highs and lows
with a Cheshire smile
to make the gesture complete…
full circle swing
Caution takes the lead,
nods in confirmation
gingerly moving past the man
who holds the Jester hostage
and the only one that matters
is the cool cat
with the harp perched between his lips
without malice or intent…
blow sweet melody, blow…
