Valsa George Poems

Humming a soft tune
came down the wind
With airy fingers,
it tousled my hair
...

Outside, the night was gathering strength
How swift our lightning Sputnik,
Out running the speed of sound and light
Shot into space with a violent jerk
...

Against the hazy sky
Mountains, seen grotesque
Frightening monsters, poking out
Here, there and all around
...

There lived a man with the name Nero
He wasn't another Nero nor a hero
He was only as bright
As the dim candle light
...

As the scurrying clouds clashed and broke
Sparks of light cut instant pathways
Thunder stamped across the darkening sky
Like an enraged beast, violently hurt
...

I want to shed my earthly existence
Like the sloughed skin of a snake
To rise high and still higher
To levitate in ether, to feel weightless
...

In my close vicinity has come a new neighbour
Who is seen by all as a terrible bore
No one is quite sure of his identity
And no body seems to endure his audacity
...

Soon after the sky had shed her liquid sorrow
when dark clouds quickly vanished
it looked so immaculate, spotlessly blue
When the noise of cosmic hiss subsided
...

Thank you Lord for each dawn that breaks
For every happy hour, it brings
Thank you for granting one more year
To see your glory and kneel in prayer
...

Growing out from childish pranks,
With the storm and stress of turbulent teens,
I locked within my mind’s cupboard,
A portrait vaguely sketched, but never finished.
