Cello – An American Cinquain
sing,
hypnotize them,
those lovers who listen from balconies
before falling like angels through the divine gates
of mortality.
(inspired by Susan Glassmeyer’s book, Fair Blue Eggs, American Cinquains)

Small revision (can’t help myself) to last line.
sing,
hypnotize them,
those lovers who listen from balconies
before falling like angels through the divine gates
of ecstasy.
Susan Glassmeyer’s book is Four Blue Eggs.
Typ-o Correction!
Yes “ecstacy” the better final word
foe Cello
thanks. I shared the poem with a friend of mine and she says “mortality? what does that have to do with “sing”” Ah to have such friends!
Important correct – and ode to my typ-o’s:
Susan Glassmeyer’s book is called Four Blue Eggs!
(not Fair Blue Eggs).
