Love your poem of this gifted

Love your poem of this gifted musician. He was obviously born to play in his own unique way.

Your description of Brean

Posted on Wed, 13 Aug 2025

Your description of Brean sands was perfectly accurate, in fact with all the sights, sounds and aromas, I was taken back there in my mind.

I wonder if Billy and Danielle are destined to be together! Only time will tell.

Keep going...
