Leon Enriquez Poet Rhyme

Patterns

Waltzing by the bamboo trees
Clusters of serenity
The winding wind sings softly


The movement of the light
Tints and shades and hues take flight
Changing patterns hurl insight


There is a whisper I hear
Watch the bamboo leaves endear
The old pavilion right here


Shady trees spread overtones
By park bench of cold, cold stone
Play of light with windy groans


The world in a rush repair
Ignores this calm, curious air
Rush to feast other affairs


Only the old retirees
Walk and sit and chat softly
See patterns forgetfully


Now far from the madding crowd
The pace of life is not loud
Yet a festive mood stands proud


Once upon a time the chase
Now the twilight years keep pace
Wrinkles and silver hairs trace
