Merry-go-round The Merry-go-round of ups and downs Dances emotions and grinds the mill Sculptors my face from smiles to frowns Desires that pass within me still It plays a xylophone in my shrine Beating a beat of nursery rhyme That titillates the nerves of my spine And echoes me the sands of my time It’s a day dream that plays a tune And releases my dragon to fly Shuffling me the sun and the moon Separating the truth from the lie It wines me at a dizzying pace Of all the memories that lay in store O’er shadows of an earlier grace The wishing well of forever more It’s a dance macabre upon a stage And the Merry-go-round of my age |

Oh, thank goodness! I couldn't leave the puter screen until I saw that you had posted my dear friend Seymour. I was worried about you. And, here all along, you were on life's carousel. hugs, Chris ![]() Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance. |

Oh Sy!!! I was so worried... (I know Chris and I worry alike..cause we're sisters!) But not reading you for a few days..I/we were so concerned. (Oh I know I must sound like a babbling brook, lol) Now I can relax a bit... ![]() Glad everything is okay... I get the black horse on the carousel. ![]() ~Smiles, Hugs and Afternoon tea, Nancy~ ![]() |

Around and around, and around Sigh goes, With rings on his fingers and bells on his toes! Around and around, the carousel spins He writes of sweet roses, stars, needles and pins. Around and around, he twirls like top, May he whirl and swirl and not ever stop! ![]() EA |

It plays a xylophone in my shrine Beating a beat of nursery rhyme That titillates the nerves of my spine And echoes me the sands of my time It’s a day dream that plays a tune And releases my dragon to fly Shuffling me the sun and the moon Separating the truth from the lie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You know Im loving this one...those verses are the define of way cool cadence...your muse gave you a hum-dinger!! ![]() Your rhymes are always on time me sweet Sy-guy. ![]() *ww* ![]() ![]() ![]() |
