I play guitar, A, D, E

Writing has been going slow, but steady. Not even close to 30 poems this month, but that's ok. Received some good feedback and editing advice from a fellow poet about a troubling piece. I've been frustrated with my own poetry recently and it's spread to hating on others work, which is not right. Got some feelings sorted out. It's good to be able to send something to someone, unsolicited, and to get some unconditional quality advice instead of having it ignored and unacknowledged.

Day 26 - A song you can play on an instrument.

Define play.

I know some guitar chords, but not necessarily how to put them together coherently. It was a big deal for me to get up on stage and Do the Chet a couple of weeks back. That was a first.

Again though, three chords and the truth, sometimes that's necessary. Which is what this Buddy Holly song is about. I can muddle through it. Here's the original.
