A veteran actor toward the end of his career stands in the wings and prepares to go onstage.
Spotlight on, smile lit,
godparents’ son set to steal
the scene; cast take care.
[I am sad to announce that my "aging actor" cousin passed away in early February 2006. We will all miss him. Now, he is with his parents, my godparents, acting up a storm in heaven.]
I have to agree with Deborah,
interesting form of poetry, 4-6-4 in syllables.
At least I think that is what it was? It was a great three lines of wisdom and new life happening to an old age actor. Tells the world that one can never stop growing and loving. Even at the young age of "say 61"? That is how old my Mother is at the moment. I am the baby of the family and just turned 34 years.
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
The songs and art in this book are about our collective emergence after the pandemic and trauma of the last few years - comprised of 5 collections: World as Refuge, Where We Live, In Our Hands, Rhythms of Change and What We See & Sow.
