My Blue PRS Guitar by Tony Whitaker
seized by this electric fever
strumming my blue PRS guitar
holding her hand-carved body lights
this languid soul afire
blindly following her appealing call
as a note from afar
like the twilight and the evening bell,
as the ship has crossed the bar
whenever I am sad and lonely
her song will then inspire
and the ashes of my selfish soul
are lost to my blue PRS guitar
her rousing riffs and melodies
on occasion quite bizarre
she secures me in her song
goin take you (even) higher
I heed her tuneful call to me
not allowing me to retire
excitement as she guides my hands
to chords of her desire
arousing from her inhibitions
as the notes fill the pyre
I possess a fervent passion
for playing my blue PRS guitar

Author's Note: This is my homage to my, for you guitar collectors out there, 1993 hand-carved Paul Reed Smith Cunstom 24 '10 Top' blue guitar. She is the best electric I have ever owned or played and I am so fortunate to be her partner!
