T Is For Tunes

Music has always been a part of my life; a big part in my younger years, playing piano, guitar, trumpet, etc., even writing songs, parodying others, and putting my own slant on popular tunes.

For some reason, life took me away from it, leaving mostly just the listening to tunes and that innate desire to create again. Tunes and tones, melodies and harmonies, dance in the background of my never-resting mind as life goes on.

We've been listening to an Irish radio station lately that seems to have recovered some of my yearnings to play music again. There has been some songs that have been begging for a different slant on them. They echo in my mind with no way to fruition, not having anything to play the tunes on.

Or so I thought. I was gifted with a guitar, the giver not aware of the echoes in my mind. It's a sign. No....it's a nudge. Okay, it's a push, and one that I don't want to trip over.

Now to get my fingers in shape again....

  1. I had a stroke a few years ago and lost the functioning in my right hand, which ended my guitar playing days. Believe me, I've tried. You're lucky.
