Star Troubadour

STAR TROUBADOUR

Who    in noontime blaze
Comes singing of left
                                   right
                                           above places
    of reality    time-frozen
                         moment of clarity
                                     a moment lost    but gained?

Star-troubadour
    blessed     with revelation
                 with Earth-blind devotion
Comes singing
I  catch his song on the fringe

Sara Kendrick Date: 5/7/2011 7:07:00 AM I am not familiar with the song but know that a troubadour is one who sings poetry like lyrics to entertain..I will have to look up Star Troubadour...Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work "Chiccory Coffee"..My favorite aunt she died with something called multiple myeloma at the age of 80..Sara Login to Reply

Michelle Mac Donald Date: 5/6/2011 2:41:00 PM Oh, I think I know who this "TROUBADOUR" is, but truth be told, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. Thanks for the comment on 'Fanfare'...it was about that friction between Rosey O'donnel and Mr Trump. You must have heard them rattling each other's skeleton in the closet? Anyhow all seems alright, and Trump feels to run for president. I won't blast a might-be president, for sure! Love, Mikki Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 5/2/2011 9:45:00 AM Every now and then I catch a few "revelations" from the "star troubadour," Daver. I am always so glad when I get these messages that seem to be moments of clarity in a chaotic world. I saw James Peranteau's poem and your remarks. I'm not sure I understood his poem, but he blind-sides me sometimes. Love from naive Nellie Login to Reply

Michelle Mac Donald Date: 5/2/2011 7:56:00 AM Hi Daver! Oie yoie...this certainly takes one for a musical mind spin. You are more clever than I with your ideas! Thanks for your comments, though today I feel as though most are like brain hiccups. Still, I'm grateful for your kind comments, thank you! Best to you and yours! Love, Mikki Login to Reply

Linda-Marie Sweetheart Date: 5/2/2011 7:41:00 AM I am sure I have heard his song James and it is as lovely as your creative write today.. star troubadour reminds me of a light hearted person who goes around spreading good cheer with his rhapsodies.. and melodies.. always enjoy your flowing lilting lines luv..
