This poem is dedicated to those who read and respond on the Facebook Vocal support groups. I appreciate that you take time you could be writing to connect with others.

This is a piggyback song, meaning the tune is borrowed but the words are original. I used the melody for “This Old Man.” Enjoy!

This great man, number 1

He makes Vocal so much fun

He’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw him a bone.

Help with his next milestone.

*

This nice gal, number 2

If you ask, then she’ll come through

She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.

Help with her next milestone.

*

This giving lass, number 3

She gives of her time freely.

She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.

Help with her next milestone.

*

This kind soul, number 4

She’s a reader we adore.

She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.

Help with her next milestone.

*

This fine lady, number 5

Reading keeps her young inside.

She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.

Help with her next milestone.

*

This tough chick, number 6

She finds time for reading kicks.

She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.

Help with her next milestone.

*

This cool guy, number 7

His music links take me to heaven.

He’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw him a bone.

Help with his next milestone.

*

This loving man, number 8

As you’ll see, he loves his mate.

He’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw him a bone.

Help with his next milestone.

*

This swell girl, number nine

What she writes is so divine.

She’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw her a bone.

Help with her next milestone.

*

This nice dude, number 10

He will read whatever we pen.

He’s a feedback maniac. Let’s throw him a bone.

Help with his next milestone.

*

Outro:

Here’s some payback, tip you back

For the love you’ve shown.

Thanks to you, we’re not alone.
