Come dance this lifetime away
28 November 2015
Put on your blue shoes
Blend into my sorrows step
Let’s dance to the now
A step for glory
Long lost as Time whizzes past
Forgotten footsteps
A step for the blame
Irretrievable measures
Of Humanity
A step for the fame
Sought in meaningless rivers
A dive into shame
A step for morrows
Of Earthen frames’ eagerness
As the bush seeks wild
Lay your tides in mine
I will redesign deltas
Coming back to shores
Conjoining waters
Melodies a rhythm of blues
The dancing guitars
Catharsis moves me
To depths of man’s misery
Broken tides lay still
Purification
A game of flames to dethrone
Measures of our souls
Walk in the meadows
The shepherd grants ne’er sorrows
But the peace in Heart
Sing stories of Love
Universal flags that reap
Fruit of belonging
Lay your Heart in wells
Come dance this lifetime away
Tireless kingdoms

I LOVE TO DANCE!
Thanks. I love to dance too 😀
This is one of the best collaberations between words and images that I have seen in Blogland. You writing was superb. And the images visually stimulating. Great work.
Thanks a lot, that is a very rare compliment and I appreciate it as I was intent on creating a very visual effect with this one 🙂
You succeeded. I read it twice.
Oh wow! That is quite something. I just noticed that you’ve been at your devil girl again and am looking forward to reading the piece 😀
Thanks. Every Saturday

Beautiful words and imagery, Geetha
Thank you Jane
Love this, Geetha. As elegant as the steps you describe. Also love the water and fire imagery. Beautifully done.
Thanks a lot Eric. I have to admit I like this poem too and enjoyed writing it a lot. I am currently going about posting a Tanka which is a form I had not used for a while.
You’re welcome, and I will be happy to read it when you’re done! 🙂
Yes, it was even better with the pics intertwined….. 😉
I thought as much Peter. How lovely to see you here now. I just had a peep at your blog and saw that it was very multicultural 🙂
