Well here is my contest entry...

I have been working on this idea to enter the eclipse trumpet contest... If you are a trumpet player or like to ever try go check this out.. Its not hard to come up with something for a entry..Though I have a hard decision wether I should do some more shots...But I really like what  I have wrote. Its the best yet to come out of me... I have found my spirit again.. I wont let it go ever because I am happy and care free..Learning and loving like one could ever do in life...

So here is my entry ....What do you think?


 
Listen to me now
I am going to show you how.
Life is about choices
Not a bunch of noises.
When you are aware of sounds
We share a common ground.
A soloist must  listen to proove
The worthyness of a spotlight too.
There may be more than one
It is lots of fun.
Sharing your talent  playing
All the while all is swaying.
To a beat, a harmony, and even a melody.
Tap, bump, thump, crash,
Drummers dont clash.
Waaah, waaay, wheeeen
Tubas, Trombones, Baritones,
Share a low based that clean.
Tweet, through, cute, see,
Flutes, picalos, they play like a feather thats free.
Jam, ham, soon, you , we, us
Clarinets or saxaphones
share special backup tunes with the favorite of most.
What can we do but host
A party for one of a kind.
Let it be that we never mind.
All the others have their place
But I am talking about a special case.
I am hoping that you will be the one playing
Together you and I will be swaying,
With our trumpets that we have here.
You see I will help you, your friends, and everyone near.
What I have learned
May be just what others yearn.
Dreams of rock stars,
Glamorous styles,
Number one hits
That people wont miss..
Everyone deserves the chance to be apart of this.
It is my wish
To share, reach out,
Care or shout,
Teach music throughout.
Give to the community.
Dont be afraid to be free.
Let your talent from inside rise above and thrive.
Creative exploring
You wont be boring.
Come on now
I have shown you how.
What noise do you hear?
Will it be this time this year?
Please choose
Then I will proove
Here is a spotlight full of Peace!
I have to admit the start of this idea was for my childrens sake as I am teaching them music in their lives. Zach is working on his buzzing  and he has shown his friend across the street...I hope to find more instruments for us to play, we would be like the partridge family here. Anyway this I will enter to the contest..I would like to win a eclipse trumpet for the insparation to keep on playing as well as share with my children and others..
I have tried to teach once when I was younger my cousin and several kids I that I babysatt...
One did end up playing for awhile, so I guess maybe if only one I am proud to have been apart of helping someone find that special enjoyment..
Now I hope my boys will decide on their special instrument or learn more than one would be ok too..
I will always keep playing for now on too...
As what Chris Botti says on his website...."The trumpet is pretty unforgiving, and if you do not keep practicing, things can go wrong, real fast." >Chris Botti
