Rendezvous Of Spirits 1 Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

We,
We spirits that have broken chains,
we
here gather.

Here is our agora, our parliament
together.

See! a Spirit-Skeleton already
beats the drum
and a Band of Skeletons
play in their orchestra.

Others that were speaking to
each other
cease
and gather round
hand in hand
as in a dance.

Dance Spirits! dance!
the night defeated dusk!
dark weighs
on human eyelids!

This be a line of evolution
to where we
old humans arrive:
from birth of child
the human grows and ages
then having many times
garnered
the wisdom of the sages
the human to here transforms
crosses the bridge to us
welcoming.

Drums flute and other
instruments play.
The dance slow
Begins with measured steps
and measured paces.

the haunting silhouettes
form the scenery:
our eyes close slowly
in serenity.

the hours fleeting
we will not to see
though as Dawn approaches
a brusque cessation
make we.

but
then will we
not have the night
enjoyed
enjoyed together?

Time flies
not on our side
but we,
we spirits with human's
intelligence and more
adjust together.

See human
see to where
so many humans came
that now as dust
you can pick in your hands
but not the spirit catch.

Hush! do not disturb
let us enjoy each second
each second utilize
the drums, the music
plays
and the night-dance
goes on with measured
step after measured
step together.

For
We,
We spirits that have broken chains,
we
here gather.

Here is our agora, our parliament
together.
