National Saxophone Day

 In the midst of all this chaos 

When frustration’s only grown, 

Let us pause to stop and listen 

To the lovely saxophone.


Adolphe Sax was its inventor

Back in 1846

And his instrument remains

One of musicians’ favorite picks.


Charlie Parker, Clarence Clemons,

John Coltrane and Kenny G

Are a few whose sax renditions

Have made music history.


So forget this doomed election.

Take a breath and clear your head

With the melancholy musings

Of a saxophone instead.
