Barely a breeze
Birds hover within the trees
Sun submits to clouds

Waiting and Watching
In this troubled world
Waiting for our Blessed Hope
I keep looking up

Waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ” Titus 2:13
Parting Gifts
May’s last days
Filled with sunshine
Clemetis
Climbing high
Among red hydrenga blooms
And bright yellow rose
Shadorma
Dove at Dawn
Thirsty visitor
In the early morning light
Dove awakening
Haiku
Heartstrings
Paled
And poor
Dreams fading
Into the night
He clings to the hope
That his fingers will find
A new sound upon the strings
That will refresh his weary soul
To arise from the blue funk of woe
And dance to the music of his heart

Goat skin
Nylon strings
Master crafted
Instrument created
Unique from all the rest
In the hands of its creator
It has a soft voice all its own
That warms the heart and soothes the soul
A handcrafted Banjo named “Mary”
Etheree
This poem is dedicated to a hand-crafted Banjo named “Mary” that was created by “Doc” Huff.
On this ” Buy a Musical Instrument Day” I would like to pay tribute to a very talented man and his family who hand crafts Banjos. “Doc” Huff of Doc’s Banjos in Dallas, OR creates unique Banjos from scratch using wood from the trees on his property. Doc builds these beautiful musical instruments by hand in his small log cabin workshop ( which he also built). Doc designs and cuts the wood, dyes the skins and adds special strings to create a one of a kind Banjo that is not only beautiful to look at but also beautiful to listen to. Doc’s wife Florisell and his three children also help with the crafting business and his daughter evens chooses a name for each Banjo created.
If you are looking to purchase a Banjo or are just interested in Banjo making I invite you to visit Doc’s Banjos online or in person. It will be an experience you will surely enjoy.
