Vijay Pandit Poet Free verse

Holding On To My Fantasy

Holding on to my fantasy

Enchanting like heaven,
Her melodious voice
Found a home in my heart,

So I followed her path
Engrossed in her lyrics,
Fantasizing a beautiful face
Behind the sound of music,

But I turned back quickly
Holding on to my fantasy,
In case God made a choice
Between voice and beauty.

Valsa George August 13, 2022 at 7:42 PM We tend to fall in love with some one's voice.....without seeing the person singing. But the voice may not necessarily match with the person from whom it comes. So it is better to have an after thought ! Beautiful, Vijay !

Heidi Sands December 26, 2017 at 10:17 AM Well done Vijay. I agree with others, maybe both and yet, beauty is in the heart and soul too. Vijay Pandit December 26, 2017 at 4:03 PM Thank you Heidi..you are right, there is beauty in heart and soul...not just the face.

Silent One December 26, 2017 at 5:15 AM Vijay I am seeing a pattern here and I for one see beyond the words.. This is a fantastic rhyming poem, it is short, but the verses are very good... Voice and beauty sometimes are the same choice... Vijay Pandit December 26, 2017 at 4:01 PM You are right Silent One--there is beauty in voice..many thanks.
