Sail Upon My Magic Sea of Sound
by Tony Whitakermy magic box
of frets and strings
plucking leads
from scales
into a wall
of sound
which cantonate
with chords
to fill these
flowing trails
a melody
emergent majors
stow the weight
minors and sevenths
carry the wind
a sail of song
each stroke of string
upon uncharted seas
I see the shore
the tune is done
I belt-out
and christen
a ~new~ song
cast off
asea with you
