Georgia Kereopa Poet Free verse

Broken Blissful Heart

Within the shadow of a broken heart
love trembles in the corner
shattered and alone
heart drumbeats sad rhythm
tears flow over aching waterfalls
despairs solemn words
dominate me
paralyse me

The seed of hope
intrinsic force, a miracle
love contemplates
life’s possibilities
thoughts drift along, tumbleweeds
blown by winds of change
to bloom in the minds meadow
there beats a courageous heart

Caren Krutsinger August 21, 2019 at 1:07 AM Your first two lines are delightful! "Within the shadow of a broken heart love trembles in the corner" - these two lines were enough to be a whole poem. The rest was just showing off, Georgia. This one should go straight to the top of any contest. Georgia Kereopa August 22, 2019 at 7:47 AM Caren, the first line is Joseph May's (definite headliner I thought), the rest was mine. Thanks for all your comments.
