hanging slipping falling dream
smashing waking hearing scream
wonder i dont snore
down here on the floor
guest beds like a balance beam.
I watched a young gold medalist
Finish her routine
On the balance beam.
I watched a young girl
Walking barefoot
On the smooth bark of a fallen tree.
My heart soared at both
It only knows one kind of joy
Immeasurable
I see beyond the pages of a book,
where stories are more then just words.
Pictures come to life with every turn.
Imagination takes control.
As elephants dance and
giraffes wear pants.
monkey's eat ice cream
or hippos walk the balance beam.
A world full of fantasy and dreams.
Beyond the pages, is what I see.
Walking on a balance beam
made of broken glass
My only get away
was going to class
One step forward
two steps back
I couldn't walk away
and i tried not to fall
But no one ever noticed
That i had to try at all
No one ever cheered
no one ever clapped
So i took it as permission
I Stop balancing
And I fell
Straight back
Questioning my existence,
I feel myself responding
to what’s in my head.
Overthinking the next move?
A quick way to lose.
Not taking in what’s right here.
Moments shatter in your hand
never held again.
Walking on a balance beam,
wobble and remount.
Sunrise calls me to visit
and taste her coffee,
each day with a smile.
Beaming a warm reminder:
Go enjoy this day.
There it is
Hard steel
Lined in felt
Walk the line
Toe to heel
Cards dealt
...hmm
Movement limited
Agility required
Success after failure
Repetition inspired
...hmpf
Music added
Flowing vibration
Fear dissipated
Leaping without hesitation
...triUMPH
Flooring preferred
Elevation elation
Not required
No name
No fame
Heart fired
...uPPPPP

Character mellows down
As time moves on
It goes up and up it never loosens
Sometimes, down and down it drowns
Ascent is rare but it takes also descent
When you have reached top it prints a dent
In life, remember
Humans drift once in a while
And while the balance beam
You can’t get condone
Maybe reprieve, censure and triumph
But, don’t ever miss a stone unturned
Lessons of life is rather fine.
If you want to participate
in the pool events
at the Olympic rings
you literally have to be
right in the swim of things
and you really ought
to be on top of things
if the balance beam
is your sport
or if it's high jump hurdles
or pole vault
you should get over them
to a fault
the Olympic rings were created
giving athletes wings
by Charles Pierre de Frédy Baron de Coubertin
dubbing him 'Lord of the Rings'
