Oh violin

 So strong and trustworthy 

Yet elegant and beautiful 

The fairest I’ve ever seen


Sounds as graceful as nails on a chalkboard

Or as incredible as rain on a tin roof

frankly

It depends on the person behind the wheel


You with the Melody

The rest with just mere Harmony

Your strings

 waiting to create

The enchanted thing 

you sing


Cellos can give all their hate 

We all know they are jealous of your fame

oh

I love your luxurious look  

At the end of your bow a hook

 

Violas and cellos, as well as harps 

I can never compare to how I feel at heart

When you make your soulful song

oh

You know I’m not wrong

I love my violin and have been playing it since 2nd grade. It's my favorite hobby. I play for a youth orchestra and have a private teacher. This poem expresses how important my violin is to me.
