As The Beat Begins To Play.
First things first, sorry I didn’t post on Saturday, I’m running a bit behind on poetry with so many other things to do. It was the one year birthday for the blog last Friday, so happy birthday blog.
Now onto the poem. Don’t ask what it means, I don’t know. I started writing it when a song was spinning round my mind so it’s partially to do with that (the second verse at least).
.
As the beat begins to play
I begin to sway
My mind starts to fray
As the beat begins to play
.
As the music spins around
I can’t hear a sound
I’ve become unbound
As the music spins around.
.
As the actors come to dance
The world does advance
I lie in a trance
As the actors come to dance
.
As it all fades to an end
The world it does mend
My mind does transcend
As it all fades to an end
.
Hope you enjoy, please feel free to comment.

Certainly my cup of tea! As the beat begins to play and as it all fades to an end, it does show that how eventually everything comes to an end..to a stop..
I might add another verse at some point to show everything is actually cyclic (but I doubt I will). Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed it.
The Lonely Recluse,
I was almost hearing trance/techno music in my mind while I was reading this. Thanks for sharing.
I can’t remember what music was stuck in my head, it very well may have been some dance song, but more likely it was rock.

Happy Rally.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. You too.

Nice! Music has the power to break us down, doesn’t it? My musical muse: http://wordcoaster.wordpress.com/2011/11/29/your-voice-reverberates-with-light/
Music has the power to both destroy and to rebuild, and both at the same time. if it weren’t for the song stuck in my head, destroying my concentration, I wouldn’t have written this poem.

Ah, Recluse I’ve missed looking at the world through your lens during my much too long time away. I too enjoyed how you opened and close your write, bringing its natural “end”. The the use envelope poetic formwas perfect for this..
It’s good to see you back Raivenne, to be fair I’ve been away from doing anything for a while myself. I’m glad you enjoyed the poem. Is that what it is called? As ever I just wrote what I thought should go, without knowing what the form is called (I’m a chemist really).

I like the repetition at the end…the finality of it all.

This is so beautifully done. I love the snowflakes on your blog too 🙂
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. The snowflakes are wordpress’ doing, they always put snowflakes on everyone’s blog in December (unless they opt out).

You actually make it appear so easy together with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually one thing that I think I would never understand. It sort of feels too complex and very huge for me. I am taking a look ahead for your next submit, I’ll attempt to get the grasp of it!
I just write down what appears in my head, doesn’t mean I understand it myself. I think my next post might be a bit easier to understand.
