Alternating Arabesques

Alternating Arabesques

As I was, the apparitions dance
With alternating arabesques
The shadows raced across my ceiling

And as I watched these ghosts adorn
The sounds of Cellos and French Horns
I dreamt of the day my son was born

As my heart was pulled from my chest
The sound  heaving from my wife's breast
Went dancing through the soft quintessence

Like ballerinas holding an ever spin
My face held onto its inherited grin
And my heart felt the beat from its essence

As I was, the apparitions dance
I am now an alternating arabesque
Happy each morning in my life's dealings

Tony Taylor
