Dance of Death

Dance of death at edge of everything
            An elegy of discomposure it sings
  
       On the pyre with blazing flames
             In flickers lost turn of life's games
  
       Dances in tears falling from mourning eyes
             Trampled on floor music of breaths lies

      Can dance in sweet tease of lovers
              Transforms tempo at sudden vigorous hours
 
      Roaring laughter accompanied with surge of storm
              High elevations of snow on hearts warm

       Dances without rhythm and rhyme
             Mercurial can stumble upon at youth's prime

       Gives tempting offers when joy flies away from sight
              When happy stars hide beneath cloudy nights

        Shakes legs as winner of every gamble
               Beyond anyone's manoeuvre to escape his trammel
