Dancing Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

Dancing
Smiling
Merry
Waves
Merry
Smiling
Dancing
It be day
Dawn
Rising sun
Dancing
Smiling
Merry
Waves

Now
With
Clouded
Face
And
Frowning
I view
The decline
Frowning
Static
Sad-faced
Waves
Pining
Pining
In
Red
Dusk
Pining
Pining
In
Fading day
Pining
Pining

Even so
We
We humans
pine
Pine
pine
When
The
Time
Be
Come
For
Pining:
All
Inescapable
All
Irresistible
All
Irreversible
We
Humans
Pine
Ine
Pine
And
We
Humans
Fade
And fade
Crumble
As
A
Monument
Once majestic
Crumbles
By centuries
Dust to dust.
