I had always thought,
That Scott Joplin worked alone.
And he did mostly.
Syncopated tunes,
One took seventy two years,
To be recognised.
The Entertainer,
Found in a film by this name,
I know yiu know it!

Tuesday 12/02/19 Blues Guitar
Rev. Gary Davies,
And Mississippi John Hurt,
And Big Bill Broonzy.
I learnt guitar young,
With the bluesmen by my side,
Through books and records.
Went on to Ragtime,
Jelly Roll Morton and more,
Of course, Scott Joplin!
