James Peranteau Poet Free verse

Perfect Rhythm

.

      What a beautiful
         inflorescence
    setting on our table
      gathering colorful
             chatter
    and the smiles were
            luminous

  His eyes were glowing
 his feet and little digits
 were in perfect rhythm
  with the beats of his 
       ecstatic heart

    How much more  
could a father yearn for
           pray for

             have

Carolyn Devonshire May 14, 2009 at 12:37 PM Surely there is nothing more blessed than the love a father has for his son. This is beautiful, James! (There was a little boy from Africa singing last night on American Idol. His name was Noah and he was singing to raise money to eradicate AIDS in his homeland.) God bless you and little Noah! Love, Carolyn
