The Caravan of Stars
Along the road where moonbeams spill, the gypsy wagons wander still. Their lanterns swing like fireflies caught, each wheel a whisper, each song a thought. The fiddler hums a ghostly tune, that weaves beneath the weeping moon. A tambourine keeps time with dreams, and horses wade through silver streams. No map can mark the path they tread, no stone remembers where they led. They chase...

Premium Member Tambourine Tears
Tambourine tears fall with such grace They actually make music on my face A festival of salt on blackened skin Pickled smile teasing the audience again Bitterness is an acquired fruit After fasting, it is at least something…to eat A means of consuming protein…the meat Of getting back to business and reconstructing Changes shuttle as seasons flavor the wind Like melting snow The saltiness gives...

Room to shake my tambourine That’s all I ask, and a space to dance And twirl my scarves and entice you to pay A corner to read your palm and collect silver A tiny nook to park tarot and runes Most of all a place to shake my bracelets...

Tambourine Woman was no legend or...

Tambourine Sonnet
No sonnet to hold the magic of feeling, A trembling tenderness in my soul delights – A shadowing sonnet to reflect the lights, The beauty, the beauty, of ever believing. No sadness to spoil the depth of compassion, A freedom so simple, though love lives still – A flyaway sonnet to soar with the thrill, The release, the escape, of all...

Premium Member Oh, Merry Tambourine
Oh, merry tambourine, shake-shake your beat. Entice our gypsy lady from her seat. Swirl her body. Make her show each bangle round her ankles. In your pulse entangle all of us with magic mirth replete! Turn and thrust and twist her hips petite. Let staccato move her tiny feet. Make her shimmy-shimmy with your jangle. Oh, merry tambourine. In the night, by fire, we...
