Kismet

"Kismet is inevitable...in vain we attempt to shape our future" (By Poet) Kismet brought two intense souls together,  two young buds, early in life,  Kismet separated the two kindred ecstatic spirits sending to distant corners of the world,  for a huge void in time!  a breathtaking garden of Dahlias and Chrysanthemums, a dreamy swing, a myriad of books to share and read, tied them in a cherished bond, engrossed with each other in breathless euphoria of youth,  they had the slightest clue,  What life was all about!  a yellow poncho, a few handmade dolls,  a dry parched garland - that’s all she left behind,  when one morning the magical garden was bare,  the blessed swing empty, he didn’t know  where the chirping birds disappeared!  the murmuring wind whooshed around, but didn’t answer!  a glorious story of love and loss - Kismet brought them back together,  her softest fragrance can never be lost, love found its way back anew,  bloomed spreading its divine aroma,  who can hide the ravishing splendour, of a never-lost passion, emotions overflowing with adoration!  light shines bright from the untold promise, trust, dreams of a life-long song,  echoing destiny without barriers,  eventual melting of two souls in one!  March 10, 2023 Theme: Kismet (Old Turkish word meaning "Fate, Destiny") Inspired by Writing Challenge - "K" words Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France FIRST PLACE Brian Strand Premier No. 1198 Poetry Contest

Dear Victor, I find “Kismet” is an old Turkish word - meaning “fate, destiny”. Truly appreciate your kindest comment.
