fretless poem

Don't get unstrung. Go fretless!

If you don't fret,
you can go wherever you want.
There are no limitations.

Life becomes a Fretless Frolic!

Not to worry, not to fret
The sound you want
is easy to get.

Every pitch you now can play,
when you take the frets away.

All your songs will make you smile.
With sweetest sounds you will beguile.

Being fretless sets you free.
Now you can play in any key!

No more temper, no more grate.
Make every tone resonate!
