The Clarinet Player Comments

The magic of music is felt in every word of the poem. A beautiful tribute to a clarinet player. We might not be able to play an instrument perfectly but we can always enjoy listening when someone else plays it to perfection. The healing effect of music is undeniable. It transports us to a different world. You capture it so well. A huge 10.

My excuse with musical instruments was that I have very small hands. Actually I can't do a barre on a guitar. I have a keyboard but every tune sounds like a dirge. The clarinet has a beautiful sound. Your instrument is an immaculate sense of poetic rhythm, Daniel. Keep playing that. This is a poem worthy of the player.
