Fearing thy passion!

Posted: Apr 2, 2008 Wed 09:56 pm     Views: 186    Interacts: 4

You can't deny
a relationship
with the sky,
that is why
I heard, it rained
constantly
While I was away.

Your smile's
a rainbow.
And a glowing sun sets,
when you blush
after hearing
my whispers.

Nights are,
full moonlit
in your company
except,
for the brief intervals
when those naughty
hair strands
cover your face.

I avoid sun,
of the mid June
for its intensity,
and I fear
your passion
will burn me alive!

I think it was stanza 3----wrong counting.

stanza 2---some new ideas to improve your poem.

The glow of the moon
reflected on your face
is flawless, except when
a stray lock of your hair
tresspasses upon the perfect vision
that I behold.

TY shobig!

I too wasn't comfortable with that second last stanza. It all actually was written amid the mess called my office and I was planning to give it a second look which I did. Here's a little alteration. Hope the word 'naughty' goes well coz every now and then it indulges to obstruct beams of a full moon.

cheers!

nice one yaar...you've got the talent.

btw. hair strands are never irksome...half of Urdu poetry revolves around them yara...zulfaiN, lutt etc etc. try finding another word, or may be alter the second last stanza slightly.
