KALEIDOSCOPES OF BEAUTY

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

waltzing about
in this life
Angels gorgeously kicking
high
today's debris
mercurial madness
they appear
to lavishly display
as they swish their
gigantic
other worldly wings
every which the way
butterfly dancers
trapped in a cosmic
mayonnaise jar
wowing their captors' eyes
yesterday afternoon
I saw The Rockets
and felt they were
heavenly given Angels
all 'Kaleidoscopes Of Beauty'
in but earth bound womanly disguise.............

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I saw on a local secondary channel on television yesterday a story of a lady who use to be a New York Rocket and the news crew doing the story went with her back to New York City and she got to meet The famed New York Rockets of today. It was sweet to see her reaction and old footage of that lady when she was a famed Rocket herself and then get to see the today's Rockets rehearse with her one of their current numbers. It really touched my heart and I imagined what a child would think of seeing those ladies in a show and how moving that would be and this poem came from that thought.
