This Wood Guitar
I am going to make a wood guitar
for all the world to hear.
It will play of love and life and
everything that dear.
And when I make this wood guitar,
it will sound so sweet.
It will say what I could not, to
whom I could not meet.
So maybe then this wood guitar
will make a difference good.
They hear it play for all that
right and think it in the wood.
But I know this wood guitar is
much more than it seem.
A part of me is in it then with
song that I once dreamed.
And it will play, this wood
guitar, for everything I said.
Knowing not what it has done for
that writ to be read.
And when they hear this wood
guitar and see what they have found.
They will delight for all that
right and know it in the sound.
I am in this wood guitar with
song that need be sung.
We live there contentedly, and
come out with a strum.
And with a strum this wood guitar
will then begin to play.
Of love and life and all that
right, to whom I could not say.
So maybe then this wood guitar
and song that it will sing.
Will then be
done when with a strum and me I am the string!
