Charmaine Chircop Poet Lyric

On a Ballroom of Stars

When I feel alone
a gypsy soul without a home

When nobody 's there 
with warmth  to share
When rattling rains are all I hear

I close my eyes and take a ride
On sugar-coated clouds
I travel far    to where you are.
Far from a  frosty afternoon
One step closer to the moon.

I fly up high to a blue -black sky
Removing Her with all my might.
I push away   the lady in today
To seek and find a happy  child
 A happy girl that's trapped in me
Still wanting to break free.

A girl who lives inside
Still struggling to survive.

I close my eyes and take a ride
One step closer to the music
that's playing  on my mind.
Closer to late- fireworks 
burning in the night.
An orchestra in concerto
and a piano  by my side.


I fly up high to a blue black sky
I dance above with the prince of love
With wide-spread wings just like a dove.

These  waiting cheeks
These open arms  
Young Ballerina waltzing
On a Ballroom of spumed stars.


Just a fantasy song inspired by the movie Lalaland.

Arthur Vaso May 7, 2017 at 11:04 PM Reading this, is like escaping reality, even if just for a few moments! :)

Eve Roper May 7, 2017 at 4:16 PM Love the movement of your poem, beautifully done.

Lisa Ricci May 7, 2017 at 3:40 PM Hello Charmaine. I must be the only person who has not seen the movie yet. I don't know what I'm waiting for. I know it will be grand. And yes, so is your entry and words. Before knowing it was inspired by the movie I was thinking I adored this concept and would rather live in this state of mind and place than any other. As always you are solid and graceful. Well done in its entirety and now I really do need to see the movie. Have a wonderful morning noon or night.

Richard Lamoureux May 6, 2017 at 7:46 AM Enjoyable to read once more.

Vladislav Raven May 5, 2017 at 4:09 PM Hi Charmaine, as i have always found when i read your work there is always a peaceful grace within the words. There gentleness can touch the heart, the soul, the mind so softly. Your words can paint such wonderful pictures. I can lose myself in the words and find peace for a while. This has to be a seven and a fave. Another excellent write from your golden pen. Hugs....Mike. XX

Maria Williams May 2, 2017 at 2:06 AM Wow Charmaine all these words that trip off your pen so effortlessly and make beautiful music to the ears. What a lovely poem. A 7+

Eileen Manassian May 1, 2017 at 11:19 PM Another enchanting write that is so characteristic of you, my sweet. Each line is an invitation to let the inner child break free. I loved this. Thank you for your support during my difficult times, sweetheart. It was much appreciated.

Andrea Dietrich May 1, 2017 at 2:57 PM That movie inspired a wow poem in you.Did you see it just recently? Yes, you captured the magic of the movie with this poem, and CHARMA, Happy Birthday to you. May FIRST. What a great birth date.

Richard Lamoureux April 28, 2017 at 8:41 AM A stunning write. My wife wants me to see this movie.

Emile Pinet April 27, 2017 at 6:23 PM A collaboration of both poet and muse breathes life into this fantasy dream and it comes alive in the reading. Emile. #7

Anne-Lise Andresen April 27, 2017 at 2:50 PM - A beautiful poem that can make anyone warm of happiness, Charmaine - Happiness is also in the title - Imagine dancing among the stars ... a princess feeling :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Chris Green April 27, 2017 at 2:27 PM Let that girl come out and play among the stars and dance until the sun rises. This was beautifully enchanting and maybe a little dream-like but I believe there may be more reality in this then what we may think. :) I think I see some sugar-coated clouds floating on...

Tim Smith April 27, 2017 at 2:08 PM I adore that movie and your poem Charma transcends those feelings...you take us on a beautiful fantasy filled journey.
