He plays for coins and passing feet,
a sidewalk stage, a tramline beat
the city hums, but doesn’t hear
the quiet tune that keeps him here.

Pero se le ve tan a gusto...
ReplyDeleteHe looks happy :-D
ReplyDelete...the music man!
ReplyDeleteI'd take a break and listen to Mr Accordion Player!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what tunes he plays? In my youth it was mostly polkas played on the accordion. The first song learned was often, Lady of Spain,

ReplyDeleteLoved the pic
ReplyDeleteThat´s a global phenomenon.
ReplyDeleteHere we have guitars. Is that a speaker next to him? It's big!
ReplyDeleteThe accordion is an acquired taste. My first thought was cruel-- No wonder the sidewalk is so empty! I apologize for that remark. I'd probably stop and listen for a while. As Ananka says (above), he looks happy. I'd have to listen to see if his music would make me happy, too.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen an accordion player for ages
ReplyDeleteIt seems he was playing his accordion on a not crowded Melbourne's sidewalk.
ReplyDeletePleasant pic and verse.
ReplyDeleteStreet musicians, a spectacle that can be seen in all the major cities of the world. What is less common is that the instrument is the accordion!
ReplyDeleteI hope the music was good and he got lots of donations.
ReplyDeleteEls músics de carrer, sempre tan pacients.
ReplyDeleteSalutacions.
Ohhh my Grandpa played the accordion. I would love to hear this guy play. A wonderful photo. Thank you for sharing with FFO and have a very nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood shot.
