Clouded Memories

shadows of the mind
grade school band
wanted to play the trumpet
instead the clarinet
never did practice
pretended play
clouded memories
of wasted times

[David Lee]

great treatment of a great instrument

[Kate]

Excellent, reflects your poem very well.

[Michael Smith]

Very moody and reflective--good match between poem and photo.

[vstap]

Ah, I played the clarinet thru Jr year of high school. Memories, indeed. And I didn't like to practice, either. Nice capture.

[Kathy]

Nicely done.

[Joyce]

Great B&W capture Tom

[Nicole]

awesome b&w!

[Linda H.Y. Hegland]

Wonderful shadow play. Your poem? Good poem too.

[Daweenie]

This brings to mind smoky jazz clubs lit in blue.

[Richard Sayer]

I really like this Tom, the gritty textures convey well the sense of past failures and regrets as beautifully recounted by your poem.
