"I am tone deaf but still feel the magic." I find this line to resonate with me, there was once a girl I liked who felt the same but I missed the fact by a mile and thus ruined my chances.
As always amazing work Jacob!

thank you for sharing, Z....how you relate to this.
Joanna was magic and I am tone deaf (can you believe I took guitar lessons). So here I am having memories from a poem now read. Joanna happened in 1975. I was 26.
Such lovely word choices, makes me sigh again, the effortlessness you integrated is so nice. I love the musical similes, they made think of someone again, a bittersweet memory.
