arrhythmia seeks too
soothe itself
with lilting
music from
harps’ sweet
song
playing a rhapsody
hidden within
its’ strings
tugging calmly
at love’s
heart belongs
a night-bird sings
like a star
forlorn
 i walk city
streets in
search of home
finding it’s only
a dream
come and gone
golden melodies
pull me safely
within
 their arms

enchanting image before
our eyes a
girl child pretends
to spy from
behind the pillar as
we watch her
 there she lightly
touches him on
his hair
while she
romps and plays to
catch his smile but
does not know that
all the while he
can not ever play
along the frozen boy
made of stone
lives on
she has captured our
hearts in her
childlike way for
happiness is
her’s today

When my daughter and I were in a hospital waiting room some time ago we watched a little girl play hide and seek with a life size statue of a boy and to watch you would think he would, at any time, come to life.
