"Saxophone
by Nathan R.
O, My Luscious Saxophone
How beautiful you sound
Like a sine wave in the air,
Yellow like a bee and gold like honey,
O, my Saxophone a mixture of cork and brass,
Colors like charcoal, blue, and Gold,
O, my Saxophone Music sounds floating in the Air,
O, my Saxophone speaking with the sounds of a crow,
Old as a sugar factory,
O, my Saxophone, your liquid tune Unfolds beneath the silver moon
You are the wind that softly blows,
The heart of every song that grows
So play on through the endless night,
With every chord,
For in your tune,
We find our own,
O, my Saxophone,
A world unknown"

But do not worry. Do not fear.
I am a happy captive here."
