Notes About The Poem

   Image result for modern gypsy woman

Caravan of Life

I will always be a gypsy- woman filled with curiosity
Running wild beneath a moonglow grasping fireflies;
Then to quickly scribble impressions on  leaves,  my poetry:
How zest ignites visual arts — charcoal, acrylic, oil—streaks upon
Drawing boards until night’s rhythm forgets to ebb : 
Nor do these limbs pause when bewilderment tempts hours 
Of dance, weeks of exploration in unknown realms
That this spirit ever free, ever me   flames an inner beam…
Nomadic  meditative  dauntless as a  caravan of light and life.
