My Merry Happy Muse

Through the mirror of the fisheye lense

I see a world so shattered and so broken

A tarnished polaroid print, hanging on my sweater sleeve.

But the moment your face appears in front of the camera,

the moment you smile,

Vivid colors burst, mockingbirds begin to chirp,

a stone at a time the people trickle on the streets.

Marching bands with xylophones and aqua roses,

Sirens serenading the sailors with smooth voices,

Pirates painting pools of images in the sky,

the people are characters of their imagination,

Comic books coming alive,

cause your my merry happy muse, my snapshot of blues,

 my enchanting dream in a bottle, an ancient old castle,

Right out of the fairytales, perfectly cut,

we’ll paste our own world on the maps,

change the course of history, and leave the momentum of our love.

I’ll frame your face, my merry happy muse:

In the desert, under the bridge, and on the moon,

so that when I see you smile the streets will flood with

vibrant balloons, talking mimis, and faded colors,

you’re a parade, an abstract painting, my merry happy muse.
