Yes, "The Thrill is gone." Yep. BB has got it. I remember when he came to our city and Bobby Blue bland. They packed it out. Hope you win the contest. Thanks for sharing.

-Nice artwork and presentation.
-The syllable count and from are good,
along with the topic.
-You give many good examples of what
music means to you, and it can do
many things, depending on our mood.
-If happy, it brings joy; if sad or lonely,
it can bring a sense of peace and comfort.
-It definitely inspires us and is art.
-A very good entry; good luck!

To begin with I just love the image of B.B. King...Great color!!
I do have a question about your use of punctuation...
Since you have a comma after several lines I think the next line would not begin with a capital? Just my thoughts...

    Hate to bother you with this but what does Blinders man... on or off?

    Lisa: No bother at all:
    What Are Blinders
    When you post a work you can permit reviewers to read and review your work with "blinders" on.

    A reviewer with blinders can not see your identity, read past reviews, or see anything outside of the title, description, author comments and the body of the work itself. The authors name is not revealed to the reviewer until after the review is saved.

    Not all reviewers will have blinders on. But when you post or edit your work you can turn this feature on for your writing by saying "Yes" to the "Allow Blinder Reviews" question.

This is a very cleverly constructed nonet poem and a very good entry for the competition. I agree, music certainly does all those things.
Great artwork and presentation. Good luck and best wishes. Jen.

Writer...

Thank you for explaining the nonet style of poetry. It sounds like a fun version.

Your poem on music and picturing BB Kong, excellent choices.

The nonet was perfect and told its story.
Best of luck in the contest.

John

Music can be strict in its form, but creative in its purpose, I've written many songs, but the one thing that always struck me, was that they were all uniquely, just like every grain of sand, snowflake and human beings are unique, a beautifully written nonet, beautifully written, good luck, blessings

I found the author's words uplifting, descriptive and creative. I liked the ending to this poem especially the last 3 lines! The poem flows and connects well. The artwork chosen is perfect and reminds me of
New Orleans! Have a great weekend!....Maria

Although the formation of words is slighting out here, I adored the fine sentiments and music is always positive and magical in our lives, I wish you luck with the contest,

Suggestion for line three to bring it in line:

This is a fine example of the Nonet poetry form. The subject works well, exploring all the benefits and attributes that music holds for us. It is indeed art.
