~ Poetic Ballet
~
Tiptoeing through your conscience
footprints left behind
scattered thoughts and feelings
a ballet of the mind
Words that tug at heartstrings
tearing at the soul
a rhapsody of love songs
when poetry unfolds
A lovers waltz at midnight
as moon and stars engage
fulfillment of each venture
hopscotch cross each page
Tickling all five senses
the lost begin to cope
sleepy thoughts awaken
bringing rays of hope
Droplets on the paper
written from within
stories and illusions
rhyme of just pretend
Blending ink with visions
a tapestry of verse
silhouettes in motion
'oft a daily curse
Etchings of the poet
tiptoe through the mind
traces of his scribbles
always left behind
