Notes About The Poem

A poem inspired by a contest before with a theme, Dreaming Into The Day. But it was late for the entry.

Dreaming Into the Day

He used to look at me straight into my gloomy eyes, In his sweet words and kisses and in his lovely arms I felt so nice; We were filled with gladness, with promises and future plans, Until I’ve found out that he’s a sky and I’m just a piece of land. He is a sun who’s shining brightly into the limelight, While I’m a little star aspiring to shine both day and night; He’s a prince who cannot eat without his golden spoon While I use pottery in yeoman’s house who is forlorn. How can a lard coagulate with water? If lightning strikes as prominent as the roar of thunder? How can it be the two of us if there are many barriers? I’m crying inside and I need prayers to become stronger. Everything about you will all remain in my dreams, Those promises of you, I’ll sing always in my mind as hymns; I want to blame myself in possession of this loving heart, Which little by little is killing me in suffocation all throughout.

What a Poem to read, to admire and to preserve as a piece of beauty and emotions. The Poem is blended with a touch of sadness and pathos, when one reaches the extreme end of your Poem. It was a joy to read such refreshing lines Leonora. Great write my friend and congrats for your well deserving 1st place win in PD's contest. This goes as a favorite Poem. Love and best wishes always...Ravindra K Kapoor

This is a very nice one, a write of a little melancholy, but very attractive! Leonora, sweetie, you not 'just' a piece of land.. Land is rich, and so are you,glorious! And 'love',, one is always so vulnerable in love, it's Bad ;), inside, you're all messed up.. Still, better to have gone down that lane, and not mend a broken heart.. that would be so romantic! (Hope this was just for creative expression) Hugs!
