Sound Asleep (oxymoron)
Dreamy participation
In performed rendition
By the child prodigy
A solo concert on pianoforte
Amidst deafening silence
Of lone parent, panel of music
Discerning aficionados
~~
stillborn moments
wonder of caught breath
in pregnant throes
whither or wither!

Enslaved Tercet
Mesmerized captive, tightrope walked
On own palm’s lifted line of heart
Reeled in by thieving eyes’ art

“RE” – reflection
“Re” – reflection
Retro parade
Of life’s
Black white
Reel to reel
Left me
Breathless
Bursting with
Would be
Could be
Should be
Only if, then(s)
Sighs replete
There is
No retake
No prefix to fix, once
Seconds minutes hours
Thunder under
Time’s bridge
Whistling shuffling
That was it
Scrambling
At the edge
Facing destiny’s
Thrown gauntlet
Shaken not beaten
Best NOT
To retrace, instead
Take a leap forward
With implicit faith
RE in regrets
Are futile at best
To get on in life
With time in hand
On own terms is best
Obliterating the rest
Life‘s lesson number one
Destiny’s dealt
Hand thus finally won

Let me be..
pride’s knee bent
forever -
before thee
… coursing wildly
within me
forever
at your finger tips
love for you
hovering like
a smile on lips
smeared with
devotion’s
color saffron
burnt sienna
umber and
afloat
on your
thought
