The Dancer

She stretched her hand out into the sky 
As if she was pulling the sun's rays into her palms. 
Her legs moved with such grace, 
And there was beauty in the chaos of her unmeasured steps. There was no music, 
But her dress had the prettiest whirlpool every time she spun. 
Her hips swayed with a majestic motion 
Hypnotic to the eye 
Seductive to the soul. 
She was like a star, 
Only obsession could reach
Away she danced into the sunset 
Till she was a silhouette echoing the fading horizon. 
She blew a kiss 
She blew my mind 
She skipped away into the night 
I skipped a heartbeat 
The next day, 
Only a few drunken love rhymes on the wall behind where she performed were left. 
Oh 
And a throbbing lump in my heart. 
One sad poet's heart wasn't trophy enough. 
Onto the next city she went 
On and on 
The show never stops 
    
      The dancer

Premium MemberFor My Beating Drum

My heart, it is a beating drum
and it dances to many a note.
This sweet, song plays; 
by God, is recorded.
Part of the heavenly band;
a spiritual lilting light.

In Gods light,
my beating drum,
sings along with the band
rings out its notes.
A best-selling record,
finite, in its play.

A mortal song can play
within God’s holy light. 
Celestial records,
with golden drums, 
play the best notes 
in Heaven’s band.

Every good band,
with unending passion, plays
the most dynamic notes;
uplifting tones of beaming lights.
Every drummer’s drum,
Is heard and recorded.

In Heaven’s studio, is recorded,
every soul-band.
when I play my drum;
oh how I play
vibrations of light;
celestial crystal notes.

Resounding, celestial notes
Ring on the etchers and are recorded
faster than the speed of light.
The history of Heaven’s band;
a soul’s music, can be played
upon their mortal drum.

Many notes dance in the celestial light.
Soul’s celestial records, will eternally play.
The happiest soul in the band; to the rhythm of life, will drum.

Premium MemberIn the Celestial Music

Celestial music rings,
riding waves,
in the ethers.
every note,
of every song,
does its aerial dance.

As voices in prayer dance;
reverberating rings, 
echo each soul’s song;
upon Etheric waves.
Every note, 
a precious gift on the ethers.

Souls ride the ethers; 
swirling, twirling, they dance.
The resonance, rings every note, 
like a bell rings 
out upon the waves 
of air, to build a sacred song.

Spirit songs,
on the ethers;
oike ocean waves,
in celebratory dance;
play celestial scales and bells ring
out each precious note.

Each bell-like note,
echoes its own set of songs,
like church bells ring
through the heavenly ethers.
All life will dance
upon those heavenly waves.

Earths ocean, womb-waves;
swirl and sway to every celestial note.
Back and forth they dance;
in rhythm to the songs,
as upon the ethers;
the music of life rings.

Hear the ring, on the waves.
Ride the ethers and become one with each note.
Absorb life’s song and with all life…dance!

The Sunny Island of Capri

The sunniest island,
with its Sea Stacks standing out
of the Tyrrhenian Sea,
shimmers as sailboats glide
in timeless serenity...
Paradise's duplication in man's heart.


Winter brings no drifts of snow,
only mild breezes from Sicily,
and the tourist is always on the go,
exploring, discovering and wondering 
how this small island came to be...
when God stopped and began creating.


The sunniest island
with pastel houses perched on cliffs edges,
and ruins of castles and villas on rocky hills;
the loveliest island
in the Mediterranean garden...terraces
decked with common brooms and oleanders.


And as the mists vanish towards evening,
the quails are seen flying above, while the lemons' 
perfume is hard to resist...the beautiful landscapes are revealed;
sail away in the bluest sea ever seen by the human's eye...
spend the starriest night gazing over its glistening waves:
a traveler's dream realized in the sunny island of Capri!
