Six strings thats all it took
\nAnd a few fingers
\nA wizard with a magical repose
\nImprovisation took him to the heights
\nFew ever reach
\nAnd harmonies that very clearly pose
\nA masterful command and a direction
\nA tenacity of thought he laboured long
\nPeter Green was a genius who was able
\nTo put great joy and sweetness in a song<\/p>\n
He had the will and of course the inclination
\nA self determination just to be
\nOut there so unprompted so spontaneous
\nhe took hearts with him everywhere inescapably
\nHis energy and obvious concentration
\nA commitment to the task always in hand
\nIn many ways heroic and unyielding
\nSelf possessed and he could understand<\/p>\n
The suffering and the unflagging efforts
\nEndurance yea he had the staying power
\nHis choice was to be alternative
\nA taste of things to come
\nHis intuition on the mark
\nTo improvise and how
\nHe took those strings to heights of improbability
\nTore into the soul and out beyond
\nHe made his allegation to the chords and scores he felt
\nHis rationale was really being fond
\nOf deliberateness and predetermination
\nHe undertook to really raise the bar
\nHe knew about perfection and about rejection
\nAnd clearly he was flawless as a star<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
