Poem Artwork


Let us read and let us dance - two amusements that
will never do any harm to the world.~Voltaire



~~~HYMNED BURLESQUE~~~

If I'd the power to control
The every word upon our scroll
Locked within this box of fate
I'd author change....and recreate

If I could tune this life my way
With sweetest melodies, to play
To air the music of such theme
By hymn to choir... passioned dreams

But I can't essay this burlesque
Nor could I prophesy a guess!
My dreams are locked by circumstance
While in their box...they yearn to dance

A

Dow

Ooops! I hear them bumping around!!

And dance they shall
Just wait and see
Just give them air
And let them breathe.

:o

I couldn't help myself.
It just popped right out.

Dance On, Lady A! Love the music with this, and, of course, that fabulous quote! I think all of us need to do more of both.

Lady A, this is a wonderful timeless creation, which illustrates how one needs to keep their feet mind and feet moving forward, through the quagmire of daily life, which far too often traps one inside a locked box! Thank you for sharing your work. Take good care and be well.
