Your love and indeed your knowledge of the Bass is evident in this free verse and I enjoyed the verse when you bring in the pairing of the bass and the musician. Nicely done JLR

Comment from Gloria ....
That's a very nice element of including all the family of other string instruments.
It's easy to see that you have a deep appreciation and understanding of the richness of the stand up bass. They are beautiful in appearance and sound, but must be very difficult to haul around for jam sessions.
Really enjoyed this, J.

This is a fascinating free verse about the bass. The instrument is very important to jazz music in particular. Thanks for your sharing the great work.

Comment from royowen
Of course the bass and drums are an integral part of an orchestra, or indeed and ensemble form, only the guitar or piano are complete instruments within themselves, but base and drums sit underneath. One feels more the hears, they need considerable amplifications for that. Beautifully written Jim, and literally personifying the base. A great free verse, with some rhyming, well done, blessings, Roy

Comment from Therese Caron
I love that you made yourself the instrument, I hope I got that right. I love the bass.I love your room placement such as finger linger, and sound rebound.The words deep rich really enhance sound rebound. I picked a few choice words but your poem is packed with words that arenice to read and listen to.

Room placement was supposed to be rhyme placement. Sorry!
Comment from Gail Denham
There is nothing like the sound of a bass - and a double bass. I love it when one of our church members plays that for our music service. it's something that goes way deep in the soul. Good poem.
