A Talk With My Sister

Do you remember? We drank that coffee together It was a rainy day You were happy! I was anxious The coffee was bitter And you knew Suddenly... You asked: "How does it taste?" Quickly... I replied: "Just like life!" Do you remember? We walked together In a pretty garden It was a sunny morning You were optimistic Suddenly.. We stopped! Some fascinating flowers Only one had wilted You asked: "Why does it look so?" I looked at you and said: "Because it lost hope!" Do you remember? That dark night I was trying to sleep You were awake There was no light And no moon Everything was somber And you knew You asked: "How is your night?" I sighed.. Then replied: "Like our hearts, when we hate!"

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Thank you for reading my poem. I haven't posted or visited the site for so long because of the brutal war in Gaza. I live in a very hard situation, I can't even find time to express my feelings and write beautiful poems.

I am. Thank you! Not memories, it's just a poem. My sister inspired me with the first lines about coffee though. : )
