"surprise" [ghazal]
Can both joy & sadness bring the same surprise?
what's the root of everything? inane surprise
fluttering free in thought is the butterfly's pastime!
but who of clay-wraught wings sustains surprise?
to approach the edge of forebearance limns a beginning
beyond that line abide kings who attain surprise
the bee is industrious! & the rose is salubrious!
that both of these might sting were a strange surprise
it never had crossed my mind I could fade on a footbridge
even granting I'd failed to bring a mundane surprise
when Ardeo perceived he were lost in a darkling forest
he felt he might pluck some string to exclaim surprise
do you listen indeed for a song Ardeo could sing?
to remember you is a thing of arcane surprise
what's the root of everything? inane surprise
fluttering free in thought is the butterfly's pastime!
but who of clay-wraught wings sustains surprise?
to approach the edge of forebearance limns a beginning
beyond that line abide kings who attain surprise
the bee is industrious! & the rose is salubrious!
that both of these might sting were a strange surprise
it never had crossed my mind I could fade on a footbridge
even granting I'd failed to bring a mundane surprise
when Ardeo perceived he were lost in a darkling forest
he felt he might pluck some string to exclaim surprise
do you listen indeed for a song Ardeo could sing?
to remember you is a thing of arcane surprise
