Moments Of Suspense

cradled in a thought

a moment yet to be

the fly before the swat

the thread unraveling your peace

waiting for the shoe to drop

a whisper held between your teeth

expecting the green-light at the stop

the prize that's waiting underneath

the flickered spark before the blast

the gasp awaiting to be freed

the skid before the crash

at accelerating speeds

the fluttering leaf still falling

because the falling is so simple

a secret so enthralling

just to know it, stirs the ripple
