but are content just being dull and ordinary?
If the latter, you are one among millions
who have as yet not asked these questions.

Footprints in the sand
Only one set,
Observation optimistic
The one I’ve never met.
Proof of prodigy
Relaying more than bodily,
Indulging inspiration
Nature-made formation. 
Triumphantly transforming
Synergy supporting…Spirit....

Harry Horsman; devilish rake, wild
Prodigy gunslinger as a child
                        Robs the stages then departs                                 
Wields his way to women’s hearts
Smoked ‘em all down with joy as he smiled...

I was the center of attention.
A bright prodigy,
born from a cosmic cradle,
collapsed under the gaze
of a million demanding stars.
dreams and expectations crushed
by bending their rules of nature. 
Now it all revolves around me, 
not them, us, nor you,
only I in singularity....

She reads Dave Berg and E.B. White,
John Ciardi and Henry Leigh –
My eight-year-old prodigy.

She sings Ray Charles and Jackson Browne,
Benatar and Robin Lane.
Her confidence will never wane.

She loves writing and drawing,
Painting and dance.
I’m proud to be her provenance....

I have accepted myself, now.

In incompleteness, 
and all flaws.

The bunker was intent, 
on self-destruction. Why 
did you want to 
stop that ?

The prodigy will not 
walk with me, I know.
Yet my shadow falls in love.

A tear-washed poem 
was a good beginning.

This blemished record
Uncalled for and unjust accusations
When did you become a pompous lord?
Rise much higher
And you'll burn in the sun
Screaming my denial
Alone and unheard
Underhanded games were always your style
Can't even say a word
Is it that easy to look down on me;
Your forgotten prodigy...

Pretty little munchkin,
precious, precocious.

She knows all the notes.
but the music is dashed off; 
a mechanical rendition.

I imagine Mozart
with an assault rifle -
that could be dangerous.

The child smiles,
she really is adorable!
The world belongs to her.

For god sake, be careful with it....

I cannot envisage
The real importance
Why only " I " stand out 
In a sentence

We are taught to be 
Selfless, humble and modest
But language teaches us
"I" will always be superior from the rest

We can  try being courteous
Thoughts matching with the script
We will still be virtuous and worthy
Even when i be without the prodigy......
