A choirboy from Tupelo
Soon saw his fame grow,
From a gospel sound
To world-wide renown-
Ends suddenly in Memphis town.
Showdown
The hand
ticks toward noon,
main street quiets,
a voice call out -
make my day....
Clint makes his play
a maiden from Nazareth
fully human,never divine
in a stable did confine
brought forth a child-
human,Jesus,saviour..mine
Literary vignette,
snippet of truth
A little bit pregnant
—baby’s first tooth
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2017)
Across Vienna's old town
In a sewer underground,
They tracked down..Harry LIme,
A Third Man in a crime-
To music so sublime.

The lieutenant & his woman
An actress & her leading man,
A boy meets girl tale,
It happens every day-
In a play within a play.
a maiden from Nazareth
fully human,never divine
in a stable did confine
brought forth a child-
divine+human,Jesus,saviour..mine
Fingers
turn yesterday—
paper sighs low,
pressed petals, crooked keys,
laughter fading into hush
slowly.
Vignette
His music was to cause a riot
As Stravinsky lost the plot,
Beethoven ...it was not-
This rite of Spring
Soon made the critics sing.
In our poetic firmanent
Keats is a brightest star;
he died,he thought a failure-
history judges otherwise,
true poetics ,never dies
wind whispers secrets so sweet
his dark figure casting a shadow
as he looms gently over her
tracing the curve of her lips real slow
The sun was high
Throats were burning dry,
The wagons circled round,
Hearts began to pound-
It's too quiet....was the prophetic sound.
Jane could ride
Jane could shoot and fire,
Dressing in men's attire,
Through her glass ceiling broke free-
Labelled..then..a calamity.
As his menage a trois shows
For Rodin,Camille & his Rose
And the old adage goes-
Two's company,they say
But three was a crowd,everyday.
Night club lights dimming low
The pianist taking his bow
Play it again....Sam -
Across the smoke-filled room
A haunting ,tinkling tune.
Simon and Garfunkel
Guitar ready and in hand
Made hit as a sixties band-
The Tom & Jerry duo change of name
Bringing forth popular fame.
Emily,Charlotte +Anne
using pseudonym of a man,
their writing soon rang a bell-
with talent so secure
their literature still sells well.
Hidden
among the green,
its mouth hums low—
a thread starts, slow and soft,
dreaming a world it never
witnesses
Vignette
sweet smell of her envy perfume
drowned that stench of betrayal play
stygian smile blurred by church-white veil
her heart habitually astray
They couldn't stay the course
So they built a wooden horse-
Out from tunnels in the ground
Freedom,was their cry,
But ,so many were to die.
A song of songs
Of a love so strong,
A serenade of love-
The inexpressible,now heard
Spelt out ,in passion's word.
Full story @Song Of Solomon
Prone,lying side by side
Lapped by an ebbing tide,
Together upon passion's ride-
In love's embrace enlocked
This watershed,no longer shocks.
In his twenties band
Louis ' music fell from his hand,
The lyrics left his head
He used his voice instead-
Scat-singing then,baked his bread.
Shadows
clinging to steps,
grain worn by years~
voice drifts between each tread,
pausing where the past often
hesitates
