There Is No Cancellation Poem by Leonard Dabydeen

There Is No Cancellation



Because you do not know
where he’s hiding his calendar
you can guarantee your heart
that there is no cancellation
of his appointment with you
all along you have been listed
in the mystical tabloid he keeps
behind the burning bush
time is marked with the ink of your blood
since you’re saved
as his favorite in a new folder
every listing starts the same
every path, every action
and every detour in your life
transposed in his search engine
you’re never alone
he feels overjoyed when he sees the love
you have for yourself
and how you share that love with others
a ritual dance
in the bazaar of life
every footprint jingles with happiness
like flowers blooming in radiant colors
in the spring of life
intransigent as always with guarantee
that there is no cancellation
of his appointment with you
and when night changes to day
in his mind’s eye
he watches in glory among the stars
as you clasp your hands in humble prayer
Namaste, Namaste
Ram, Ram.
