James Fraser Poet Couplet

In Ballerina Stance - Repost

Amidst a cacophony of sounds, discordant they're not
Through progressive ears we're internally sought

We, well we await, we await black drapes
Lights are our signal, to enjoy their create

Strobes through mists, signal our time
Silhouetted shadows appear, it's now just after nine

In Ballerina stance, proud like she poses
Arms outstretched like petals of roses

She, Kim, of Touchstone effect
Through their music her voice, such melodic select

Prelude now generates as we await corded streams
Receivers we are, appreciating their musical dreams

Spotlights in sporadic dance, like silent sirens in the dark
In seconds they soon touch, we the Blacktide no longer stark

On this night in concert, we became one and all
Strobe lights show their appreciation, bowing when shadows fall

Sadly Kim has had to take a break from the band due to illness, hence re-post.

Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser March 10, 2015 at 9:17 AM Dino James, I like how you use the ballerina's silhouettes to somehow compare to the singers style on singing.. :) Your poem, shows not only the singer's elegance but also to a ballerina.. nice pair of couplets..warm hugs!//olive eloisa James Fraser March 10, 2015 at 3:09 PM I have to admit I loved writing this poem Oliz. Kim was the singer in one of my favourite bands 'Touchstone' sadly they have disbanded currently as she has been diagnosed with M.E. :( - We'll listen to their tracks one day soon. Love your comments, warm hugs back//Dino James xx

Jan Allison March 7, 2015 at 4:55 PM You created such a striking visual image of a concert James - in ballerina stance - what a powerful image you created :-) Hugs Jan xx Jan Allison March 10, 2015 at 3:34 PM My sister has had it for over 30 years James and lived on benefits ever since :-) Hugs Jan xx James Fraser March 10, 2015 at 3:31 PM Evening to you Jan, thank you kindly. I re-posted this poem as Kim the lead singer is taking time out as it's revealed she's been suffering from M.E. for the last 5 years. Having this condition and touring is taking it's toll. Fingers crossed she'll be back in the future. Happy hugs to you, James xx
