Best Marc Poems
Death of Bella
Holding each other's hands
They were flying like birds
A tiny town below was softly glowing
Under the moon, love was overflowing
Mark whispered to her gently
“I’ll certainly never leave you ”
In the room with a bouquet
Joy springs from a cheerful minuet
His head suddenly turned upside-down
Everything was torn down
The Death of Bella caused his distress
Love was expected to be endless
Indescribable sorrow to be expressed
Unimaginable sadness was addressed
But Mark turned his unbearable sadness
into valuable masterpieces
which are more precious than pearls.

An Undying Love: “Around Her” by Marc Chagall

Le Cirque Bleu
The spotlight is aglow through the gloam
The light an indigo ink modifying color
She swings her body with agility thrusting backwards
upside down, with unseen wings,
an acrobat aerials amid the roar
She looks pretty with her fan in one hand,
long tresses flowing loosely
A circus horse made of jade below
makes eye contact and an interconnection
Without movement they are in an eternal trance,
In the deep dark yonder the golden helio appears
Fiddle and banjo play for the opening adagios act La Nouba
Her leotard tightly invokes, red with flower imprints
Statuesque, still in time showing off her physique
and impressing spectators from below the fliers' pedestal
From above the nets, with ease, she imagines a
world where gravity defies, and animals and objects fly
Flights of fancy within the flying trapeze
flights of fancy an indigo trapeze ~ from above jade nets, an ease
On June 5th Marc Broussard's performing in NY
I spot you in the crowd, come up and ask "May I?"
Why oh why, dear Lord, I met you once again?
It's bitter sweet. This awful joy. I don't complain.
You turn 'round, surprised to see me standing there.
You are caught off guard, you smile and touch your hair.
Hi Olga! Wow! Looking great! Who could have thought?
Meeting's delightful, many memories it brought.
You're approaching closer, give me greeting hug.
I waited for this moment for such a long time.
I'm so damn happy as if a squeaking pug
As owner's face appears. Shortly but you'll be mine!
Right, so how long are you in town for? I ask.
Still trying to keep my shy face under the mask.
Oh just for the weekend to see Broussard's show
But now that you appear here like summerly snow
Well I might just spend a few more extra days.
Bloody fire! Wait! Oh are you for real, I wonder?
I stare at you drowning in the eyes. Amazed.
It's summer storm inside and loud roaring thunder.
Marc sings, we sing along. Such great atmosphere!
Met again. At all odds we weren't supposed to meet!
I wait out to ask you "Let's get out of here?"
Here goes all self growth work! I'll start with empty sheet...
Music pierces where words escape every mood a tune a hearts embrace
Peril looms yet the artist shows a relaxed state over the city.
Looked back from whence they came, escaping, unfollowed, over the city.
Solitude no more, she’s his prize to carry off over the city.

Poets Are A Very Odd Lot
Poets have heard are an odd lot,
And you like me are also caught;
While enthused,
Also amuse;
By God believe we were taught.
