Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry

Waiting For

It’s like waiting for God,
oh so much. Yet why,
oh why so long?
Clocks move so slowly as I watch,
yes, watch my wrist, too, oh so long,
so long the clock, the watch,
the clock, the watch.

Yet strangely, irritably,
the time – the time that
seemed so long – has gone,
gone so swiftly,
passed into the past.
Time that was pre-noon,
is now post-noon;

Prose Poem Beckett

The scene,translucence transformed now seen and heard.Each inflection
injected with pregnant pause where accent and dialect and emphasis brings clarity of thought.Voiced alone,words once dead,  black on white,now rest within the hearer’s ear.Once imagined sounds,a unique reality.

Waiting For Godot

Now we know that Godot can’t be trusted.
We awaited Godot till we rusted.
Like the Tin Man we stood
until we understood:
he’s not coming because he was busted.

Follies a Beckett Tribute

1)
compassion
        a walk
          a phase
past a parapet
             to trust
a bridge to serve
    in an evening
        of gladness
gliding
