Theme: Illusion

Tapestry - Illusions

Illusions - by Shernaz
 
I wander through life
Looking for something;
Listening for a note musical,
Under the languor of my
Soporific existence…
I gloat I have found it; till
On a fateful day it strikes  
Nothing is as it appears
So much is still amiss.
 
Illusions – by Avril
 
Am I just dreaming
the play in which I’m acting?
Life, a wondrous
yet oft fearful production
I see, I feel
I have a voice
But it is all so finite
No trace left
when I bow out.
 
 
Tapestry – by Shernaz and Avril
 
As I wander through life
am I just dreaming?
Nothing is as it appears
in the play in which I’m acting.
 
Under the languor of my
soporific existence,
life is a wondrous
yet oft fearful production.
 
Listening for a note musical
I see, I feel.
I gloat I have found it!
Yet my voice
keeps searching for something.
 
But, it is all so finite…
 
No trace will be left
and so much will be amiss
when I bow out
on one fateful day
