A Pause For A Poem
a dozen gypsies are
dancing on your head,
spiriting me away
from your sensible
phrases, coercing my
eyes into a flutter
gosh, they are
so uninhibited -
did you say something?
they have their swords
out, and tambourines,
with rags tied around
their ankles, like
they only breathe
to have glorious fun
wow, they know
how to live -
did you say something?

Intruiging - vividly conjures the image!(A flicker of Jack Sparrow in among it...)I like this.
I love that opening. I wanna hear this sung to some good French-Gypsy Django Style!
This is indeed intriguing ... well written and fun.
Fun to read...nice post.
Quite intriguing, a great piece Shameless. Your gypsies keep calling me back to read again & again. Nicely done. :)
Loved this immediately. For me it portrayed exactly how I feel when someone is talking and I make a good show of listening but am really away with the gypsies:-)
Lovely Shameless and thanks:-)
Julie - Yes! Jack Sparrow, with those mascara eyes! :-) Thanks.
Wayne - You hum it and I'll play it! lol
CB - Thank you. Nothing like a few gypsies on the head! :-)
Mariposa - Hello and welcome. Thanks for your feedback. I'm glad you liked it. Do call again. :-)
Eric - Thank you. Coming back for a few reads? That is surely a good sign. :-) I think we all have these days ... when we're there but not there.
Lane - Yes! Exactly the feeling I wanted to convey. I do this all the time. Those gypsies put on quite a show! :-) Thank goodness!
I love this playfulness, Shameless! This poem is a great split screen between sense and sensibility. I'm with you on which one wins out!
:)
gotta listen to whatever drummer inspires...
Loved that Took me back to some meetings I've been in and your mind just decides to entertain you!
Sarah - Thank you. Yes, a split screen is a very nice way to describe what's going on. :-)
Pearl - Hahaha. No one should ever ignore the drummer! That's the rhythm! :-)
Jon - Thanks. Oh yes, meetings like that! lol
I'm humming, mate. I'm humming. Get out that ol' six-string will you?
Quite nice!
yes, I did say something...Happy New Year. For goodness sake stop that stamping and head tossing--your making me nervous. Ooh, now you've dome it. my leg is jiggling.
Wayne - It will be a long night then! :-)
Church Lady - Thank you.
LMN - I just hope the sword was out for decorative purposes only! :-) lol. Thank you dear. Happy 2008 from all mountaintops to you and yours!
Oh, I LIKE this one, Seamus. Cleverly written.
JD - Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. :-)
I tried a poem about gypsies once. I absolutely love gypsies and their music and dancing. This poem is absolutely wonderful. They know how to live.
Marja - Welcome back from your break! :-) Sometimes it's better to hear the gypsies than what boring people are saying to us. lol

I am glad oyu enjoyed yourself at the convention. I am sorry your Bavarians was handled so roughly their first time on a table. However as a side joke of the story when the unit was rode down they where placed by the registration table. There was at least ten people that asked if they where for sale after that. The Bavarians really look nice.

fabulous work Stefan!!! Drawing is spot on, and I love the colour harmonies in all of them. I don't know if it is the sitting couches in these paintings or the older word feel of the museum room.. but these really remind me of some great victorian/edwardian interiors done by painters like Merrit Chase and Duvenek.
