Almost Like a Little Rhapsody...








Like ripples on rivers
Like sun-sparkle’s glance
Like mist-mantle’s shiver
Like rain-drop tap-dance

Like bloom that wakes wonder
Then withers to naught
Like one boom of thunder
Like a fleeting thought

Like summer soon over
Like folding of sheaf
Like kiss of a Lover
Like bliss of green leaf

Like shadows or vespers
Snuffed from wooded hill
Like laughter or whispers
That startle, then still

Like dew-dazzled roses
Or snowflakes on lips
Like a door that closes
On vaporous blips

Ah life, little rhapsody
Or quick cajole
But for the body
That carries The Soul
