#Haiku03 : Bob Marley.
"One good thing about music,
when it hits you,
you feel no pain."
~
Bob Marley
A man born in forgotten Jamaican streets during the troubled war era rises to stir one of the biggest international uprisings along with almost single-handedly gifting the musical world with a beautiful new word called Reggae.
I dedicate this to you!

This particular haiku is weaved from some my favourite Marley tracks.
My tryst with reggae music goes back to my pot smoking days. Nothing gives you a better high than some good old reggae beats going in the background.
Bob's vocals and guitar prowess lend that extra icing on the cake. The feel in his songs and the perfect musical compositions are guaranteed to take you to the mystical Caribbean lands. (only if you're high enough!)
His lyrics are a perfect blend of satire and soul-searching motivation. No wonder they united a generation of oppressed population stand up for their rights!

Sing along. Wishing him a green birthday in the heavens above!
