Still standing by

Raphael aka Rafaello Sanzio
was a child prodigy you know
Sadly dying far too young
but his art* never stayed unsung

Wolfang Amadeus Mozart,
his early musical journey made him a prodigy of art.
Piano concerto’s golden notes flow with classical grace, 
placid whispers of orchestra his lucid melodies brace.

UNIVERSAL PRODIGY




     When maneuvering the world circus,
     The strongest human being in the world
       the wisest being in the universe... !
        if he were we would have limbo
      as in fact he is not, we will have hell!

Supporting Spirit

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.

Black Hole

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.

Karen

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.

A Whirlwind Romance

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.

Blemished Record

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

Orphan Of Love

The psychic tattoo
of paternity
darker than
fate’s blackest ink

The guilted knife
of maternity
cutting you
near to the brink

A prodigy alone
in the shadows
offspring of
scorn and disdain

Begging for love
and acceptance
from parents
— called heartache and pain

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

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...

Premium Member Prose Poem Palmer

In a Shoreham garden,scent of blossom fills the air,a white blaze of spring to make every heart sing.Impressioniste before its time.A profusion of clouds or blobs,dabs &extravagences per se.This stylised enigma proliferacy in a pastoral wood by a once-upon-a-time teen-age prodigy..made good.	


Inspired by Samuel Pamer’s iA Shoreham Garden 1827

Premium Member Happily, Unmarried

It started at a place called Joe,
An anonymous encounter that,
Who knew it would be many years,
It would be,
Before I would tarnish my halo.

We spawned a little girl,
A prodigy many would say,
Who gets more amazing,
Day-after-day.

Then our paths diverged,
On many issues, we disagreed
Now sadly I must say,
We are happily, unmarried.

The Prodigy

Pretty little munchkin,
precious, precocious.

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

I imagine Mozart
with a Tommy gun
that could be dangerous.
Clatter, clatter, clatter,
ratatattat.

The child smiles,
she's adorable!
The world belongs to her.

I hope for god sake,
she will be careful with it.

Artists Inborn Or Reborn

Artists are inborn and probably 
Reincarnated from a past life 
And their artistry talent gifted naturally
That's why their artistic talent 
Are indescribable, unexplainable 
And never cease to amaze many
Just like any child prodigy 
Musicians too which is slotted 
In the art category, they're awfully 
Geniusly talented and gifted to the core.
