Sinopsis

Excerpt from Beautiful Worlds, and Other Poems

So you don't remember old blind Joe, Who travelled our streets long years ago? Strange how little you young folks know, Though you deem us old ones hazy and slow.

The old whistler? Why, yes, bless your heart, I thought as we met you seemed rather smart, So tried you with questions; am glad I did so Since now you recall that gift of blind Joe.

I have heard sweet strains from the stringed guitar, Have listened with pleasure to some great star, But no sweeter strains did I ever hear flow Than those whistled love songs of old blind Joe.

They touched some chord in my boyish heart That responded quick to the old man's art, And I freely gave my penny or cent, In exchange for a measure of heart's content.
