banjos, four or FIVE.
With both instruments and famous names, hope RINGS,
and keep good memories ALIVE.
Listening to Johnny Cash and COUNTRY,
Mary Travis’ expression and voice, Pete Seeger’s FOLK.
Their spark came from the heart, not fame or MONEY.
Their messages still help us COPE.
Just like the WEAVERS,
we’re still ‘woven’ by the 1960s peace groups, not so long AGO.
Some of us remain firm BELIEVERS.
So we ever need them today SO!
Many now have gone to those ‘strings in the SKY’.
Never, their lessons, their spirit, or their SOUL.
With them we learned to understand, by and BY,
cross over many bridges, whatever their TOLL.
