A Picturesque Framed Love

I wake up this morning to a cloud of smoke lingering from the nightly bush fires of the mind; I have been reminiscing but perfect answers to soothe my soul, I could not find I feel this sharp prick in my heart, something on which I shouldn’t feed Otherwise those cold thorns of void will make this heart bleed. I drag myself to my work desk, trying to embrace some productivity But my eyes grace pixels, several years old yet quite young in my memory. I dare to pick the frame up; beautiful indeed! I visualize flashes of the road taken; and I smell that familiar fragrance of love’s seed.

Rohini, your poem of lost love is written in beautiful shades of bittersweet. Each line is splendid and so poetic but your first line is superb in setting the tone of your poem with amazing imagery and grace.. An awesome and deeply expressive poem! Warmest wishes. ~Susan
