Blues Poem by Tsira Gogeshvili

Blues

Rating: 5.0


BLUES


The startled note rose
By a half tone – in fear…
On B flat froze the despair.
Why does the icy heart
Tinkle and ring
In the sunbeams?
Isn’t afraid of turning into rain…
Of going with the wind in spring?

The sax o phone complains
In the saloon…
Blues – reproach and delusion…
I hum bass guitar’s sad bars,
Nostalgia wipes out tricks of vision,
And the wind, the chill breeze
Doesn’t scare any more
The maple-tree and its leaves…

The sounds of fury vanished...........till the vapors drying up, and the blues live on. Marvelous works of art from you my dear Tsira.

'Nostalgia wipes out tricks of vision, And the wind, the chill breeze Doesn’t scare any more The maple-tree and its leaves…' Very nice composition.
