Bagatelle Pour Les Enfants Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Bagatelle Pour Les Enfants



(dedicated to Ms. Janine Jansen, a gifted violinist)

momentum
ethereally
becalms
gains

peacefully
graceful
melody
flows

glittering
variations
a harmonic
underpinning

nightingale warbles love song
indescribably seductive
intoxicating strains
beauty in a dance

a children feast
an amorous whirls
a most adventurous
an indefinite manner

(inspired by Camille Pissarro's Children on a Farm)
