Poems From Yesterday - Charselle - April 21

∞ Eternity ∞

We ride on wheels
To sit in an ever expanding circle of now
To spin the mental cogs
Twirling on this
Swirling sphere
Circumnavigating the sun
In our solar system dance
Pirouetting across our galaxy
Tumbling through space
We ponder universal questions of luminescence
Polishing a pearl of wisdom
We are juggled in the Tao.

Iambe's Cotillion
(still under construction)

In the far off time forgot

When Man wandered with the beasts

Through forests Arcadian

Eating berries, nibbling on an acorn

Pan played his provocative pipes

And enravished Echo answered

And so it was at the tree of life

A new Goddess was born

Mom gave her every word ever spoken

Dad supplied his nimble witted, lusty nature

Beautiful, happy and smart

Full grown she stepped into her part

She was the Goddess of Poetry and Laughter

And sexual Happy Ever After

She winked her eye and began her opening soliloquy

Hello world, I Am Be

The word was out, all over the wood

The new Goddess is Good

Everyone's invited, the party is on

Come to Iambe's Cotillion

To celebrate the birth

Of the Goddess of Mirth and Verse

Oh there must have been a million

At Iambe's Cotillion

Of Sirens and Satyrs

And Naughty fornicators

When Iambe's hips began to quiver

All those Gods began to shiver

Zeus said WOW

Athena said HOW

Then the Goddess of Giggle

Began her wiggle

And with a naughty little curse

She taught them how to verse

She laughed and flicked her skirt

And the whole world began to flirt

Oh there must have been a million

At Iambe's Cotillion
