The Guitarist Night
It’s the guitarist night. Allen Powell writes the lyrics of his songs and they’re poetic. He sings one of his new songs titled, “New Her’.
Brighter and cleaner she emerged,
Out of the ashes,
She has risen,
Out of midnight,
She has come out,
Out of troubled waters,
She has surged.
Her sky no longer wears a gloomy look,
Its sun is not shrouded in sombre clouds,
She can look at the stars and smile,
She has walked out of her dreary chamber,
She’s haloed by dazzling lights.
Tears stream down Courtney‘s cheeks as the song sinks into her.

Our favorite line from the poem is “She’s haloed by dazzling lights.” The last line is a perfect ending, introducing a character who is deeply affected by the poem, just as we were.
Thank you, Voice – Team. It’s an honour.
Thompson, did you write this song? It is soul moving.

Thank you, Carrie. I’m glad you like the story. Wow! I never saw the first verse in that light.

To Leave Comments - Please SignIn with GoogleI agree with several others, Thompson – this is your best story so far. It’s so moving, a sort of story within a story. The poem has depth and is very meaningful. The characters who are singing the song/poem and listening to it have their own stories which are implied in your well-chosen words. Wonderful work!
Thank you, Fuji for the lovely comments. I’m deeply honoured.
Congratulations, a well-deserved win!
