Notes About The Poem

In tune

When the wind blows hard, sometimes it takes possessions from you, but all of a sudden It stops and everything can be replaced.

When the sun burns for longtime, the drought ruins your crops, it takes part of you, but all of a sudden it rains and everything can be harvested again.

When you walked towards me,
you got deep into to my heart.
You made many promises, 
you became my everything,
and all of a sudden you left,
maybe my heart will heal, but there will always be a scar.

Sometimes the snow falls when the trees are blooming and the birds have already made their nests. The flowers will wither before their time and the birds, confused, will cry.

The things you do everyday,
the small amount of stones
you put in a wall, it will make big changes for tomorrow.
Your behaviour towards others, your words of compassion, your loyalty, your empathy, your kindness and the warmth that you give without asking for anything in return, will drive away any anger that you may feel, and will strengthen your feelings and your soul.

Your religion is nothing but the way you act. Your temple is nothing but your own body.
You will find your peace when your mind, your heart and the path you walk are in tune.

It slipped my mind that I had read and commented on this poetry. I apologize. Such a lovely and persuasive statement of the deepest truth. When our thoughts, feelings, and actions are all in harmony, we reach a state of complete tranquility, as stated in the last paragraph. You should be proud of yourself for winning POTD; your poetry is just outstanding. Congrats

This Poem reminds me how an individual should be vigilant in guarding themselves and hearts for those that use their charm to deceive, get what they want, and leave. They are wolves in sheep's clothing devouring as many as they can. Never compromise what is right, and follow Gods protection in his commandments and those that do will be protected from the Wolves. Congratulations for receiving POTD...

True: Things can be replaced when damaged by the wind and sun, and memories remain, when a heart has been broken. Your character reveals so much about who you are. Always be kind, caring and compassionate. Your thoughts are beautiful in every way. Congratulations Maria, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Dear Maria, the most profound truth is stated so beautifully, and convincingly. The ending line is the ultimate truth - we achieve peace, when heart and mind, and the path are in tune! Congratulations on your POTD honour, this is a brilliant poem!

Dear Maria, I loved how your poem is a wonderful reflection on life's ebb and flow, capturing the essence of resilience and the cyclical nature of existence. Your words, take us of the transient nature of both joy and sorrow. Such insightful and thought-provoking verses.

It's something we should all do, keeping everything in tune, it's only when things are out of sync that things start to go awry. Congratulations Maria on the honour of POTD. Tom
