yet transient?

Why does my heart leap on starry nights,
when the moon is a crescent?

Why do oddysies start,
when they are tragedies to be meant?

Why do lips move so involuntarily,
saying a prayer...wishing a desire very fervent?

Why did life suddenly seem so sweet
when it was only her scent?

Why did my body regain its warmth
when a scintillating smile she sent?

Why do my eyes don't shed a tear,
when my heart, a painful story presents?

Why did you...oh wrethched wind, blow the leaves of my heart,
without my consent?

Why did the leaves of my heart get stuck,
in a tree of a forbidden tenant?

And WHY is it that when I was going to blame it all on the wind,
it stealthily WENT...

Why did the leaves of my heart get stuck,
in a tree of a forbidden tenant? This line is quite amazing. Love the anology of it. you write well, very sincere and convincing. Nicely done.

Good imagery and strong emotion carry your poem along nicely. The tone is definate and positive in conviction even as it asks poignant questions. I think your answers lie within, I think your poetry allows you to look for them.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
