Calypso Night
©2012 Susan Noyes Anderson
Listen as the rhythm
of a heated, humid day
meets the drumming of a
fevered, fertile night.
The sun and clouds have dropped
into the sea, simmered away;
now the voodoo moon is
rising, hot and bright.
A sultry dance of orchids
and hibiscus stirs the breeze,
as calypso pulses
magic through your veins.
Your heart beats into music;
passion takes you by degrees.
In the morning, only
memory remains.

oh yeah you capture the intensity of that dance...and love the music in the background as it accentuates your words well...hope you had a good weekend sue!
Yes, the poem and the music are in perfect sync!
It was super cold for us this morning, so I really LOVED reading this, Sue!
Oh yes, words which dance in time with the music. An unusual take on the picture prompt but a refreshing one.That Kandinsky painting is throbbing and pulsating with sound!
I think I just had a hot flash
Nothing like dancing to our own rhythm is there!
Since my mid 20's I've always worn gold sleepers but have also always worn one earring with something dangling from it, be a gold cross, a gold cat, or a piece of blue beach glass. People sometimes stop me and say: "Oh, do you know one of your earrings is missing?"
It is a conversation piece at times but, as I'm in my late 50's now I like to think of it as my one last piece of being a rebel. LOL
Wear your one earring, and smile ;)
Sorry I had to shut off the music to read the poem...I liked it.

Great! passion takes you by degrees!
I can feel the beat sister!!!
Very descriptively written....great!
God bless and have an extraordinary week my friend!!! :o)
It's almost like I can hear the music in the background... smiles...
Makes me want to go and dance now!! But I need the location too.
Location can always motivate me.
I feel like I've danced the night away! I think I'll go take a nap!
Such movement and fun all in one. :)
Oh I am dancing to this one...your music and poem in delightful sync...Nice work!
Yes, I really like. I find warm, sensual and full of fiery colors.
Your're right on the beat with this one, Sue.
only the memory remains? i think i might have a hangover as well.
Awesome! I love this. : )
Good heavens, Sue - what have you and Dave been up to? I had to go fan myself!!
I can almost feel the beat! Nice job Sue!
Ah - I like this very much!
Ha. Sounds pretty good. K.
Dear Sue,
This is the best!
Words and music ... a nice blend!!
I want to go to somewhere exotic now and dance the night away.
I enjoyed it without and then with the music. Great combo - we're all wishing to head to the Caribbean!
fun...and I'm totally a Kandinsky fan!
Repeat of what I have said before. You are amazing.
Oooh, that is delicious. Especially the voodoo moon. Love it.
But what beautiful memories they are!

What a fun way to start my day!! I am dreading some minor surgery I am having this morning, but your poem took me totally away to a much more interesting place for a few minutes. Thank you for that!
Oh so intense! I love it!
I love the rhythm of this - it could be set to music.
aaahhhhh! so revitalizing!
And the memories that remain are often the best part!
beautifully rhythm ... loved reading it.
Your words make me want to dance! This was so alive and fresh!
This poem gets my Hey! Hey! this week! The words are so enchanting.
'sun and clouds simmering away'... magical!
The rhythm of your poem speaks to the rhythm of Kandisky's art. A wonderful connectedness Sue. Thank you for sharing.
