The Drumbeat Of My Heart

Do you hear the drumbeat of my heart? 
The thunder of a Star’s descendent? 

I’m bound to the sound there is no evil;
Nature is both the left and right hand;

Do you hear the pounding deep inside? 
My spirit runs with the seven in the sky;

Coast to coast through the mountains,
I honor every mile of wide

I tested the comfort of beds, pillows, etc., for night is ever coming soon.

I studied sleep patterns too, like vivid rainbow's colored, striped design.
I also appraised sleep products, as botanists do royal rose's genetic line.

I rated beds for luxury hotels,

helpless and captive

Drumbeat of the Muses

The muses all march to their own rhythmic drum
Or saunter or scamper in their favored time
The poems will come when they come, when they come

Blank paper on desk, pen on finger and thumb
The poet sits poised to inscribe thoughts sublime
The muses all march to their own rhythmic drum

With verve you foresaw untapped depths you would

DRUMBEAT

The early morning silence,
Pierced by the melody of the birds,
And coarse craw of the cock,
The bleating of the goats and sheep for fresh fodders,
Squirrels hopping to and fro,
Devouring the ripe palm nuts atop the palm trees,
Leaves glittering from the morning dews,
And the caterpillar found its abode slippery.



The grey hair that breaks the kolanut,
The hot drink

A Drumbeat Gentle Sweeps

Swish swanky subtle,  perception intended (not)

happens so that some folk go on nil, to arrive at a lot!

Drumbeat of Death

arrows flying by
riding to the other side
home is just ahead
