All the world’s in harmony
A thousand beating drums
When I wake up in the morning
And listen as she hums
All the world’s a symphony
A thousand chiming gongs
When I’m walking past the bathroom
And hear her singing songs
All the world’s a carnival
A thousand samba feet
When I catch her in the kitchen
Hips swaying to the beat
All the world’s a canticle
A thousand chanted prayers
When I lie at night beside her
And breathe away her cares

Icarus: Favourite Love Poems
This creative collection, now in its 2nd edition, brings together love poems by Wayne Visser. The anthology traces love’s agony (“Broken Dreams”) and ecstasy (“Galaxies Cart-Wheeling”), from first blush (“Almost Strangers”) to full bloom (“Say ‘I Do!’”), as we fly to love. You’ve given me the gift of golden wings / The endless sphere of blue imaginings / The chance to rise above the silver clouds / The will to cast off untold ghostly shrouds / Don’t fly too high / Don’t rise too fast / Don’t tease the sky / Don’t taunt the past / You’ve given me the hope of warmer days / The blessed kiss of the sun’s fiery rays.
