Precious Body – Stream of Consciousness Saturday

I didn’t think it was too much to ask for
Always striving not to demand or be selfish.
Just to make me look less of an eyesore
To straighten my back for me, to just grant that wish.
I know they mended me and put me back together
Pinned and fused me and filled me with cement.
But am I selfish to want not to have a curved body forever
However hard I try I will not be straight again, but slightly bent.
I’ve always known I am better off than so many
Blessed in lots ways the truth be known.
But if I could have a wish granted it would not be just any
Only to wake and find my spine un-curved had grown.
Please don’t think me spoilt and churlish
I know I stand and walk and bend
But I’d like my posture to be more stylish
But I must accept that I am lucky not to be crippled my friend.

Oh! the silver moonlight sparkles
Softly breathes the moaning sea begging release .
Flame red her hair shimmers.
Weeping in the moonlight on the shore
Silver beams catch her beauty
Will her socks be wet for evermore.
Violin notes climbing strident upward
Climb on the breeze riding the night .
Escaping hopes ascending sweetly into endless flight.
Beautiful in the moon’s light
Wondering out into the night Earth calling
Watching silver wishes falling such amazing sight!
