Paghunda Zahid Poet Free verse

Only If I Was Charles Xavier

Only if I was Charles Xavier
I would have a virtual trip
To the kingdom of your heart, 
To unlock its secret locks,
To swim in its lakes, 
To find the colours of its sands
It's coral leaves, its floras, its stones, 
To know it all___
To wash its rust___
And water its plants

Would pour myself ___
Drop by drop ___
To mix with the soil___
To color your roses__

Would you then ___
Know me ___
Like you know your heart?

Sotto Poet May 13, 2022 at 12:24 PM You have a lovely poetic ability to portray yourself. One can only really know another's emotions and opinions if they let them in. Thank you for reading and commenting on my poem "Play in the sky." Your comment was really motivating, and I hope we can keep this two-way channel open and effective.

Paul Callus November 8, 2021 at 7:03 AM Unfortunately we are not gifted with telepathic powers like Charles Xavier, but that does not stop one from dreaming and writing delightful romantic poetry!! ~ Best regards // paul Paghunda Zahid November 8, 2021 at 9:43 AM Indeed. Thank you Paul.

Gershon Wolf November 5, 2021 at 10:41 AM Charles Xavier type abilities, with AI getting stronger, are around everyone's bend. Soon we'll see right into and through people. Scary stuff. ~ Ex-ray Paghunda Zahid November 8, 2021 at 9:43 AM And then certainly we would like to have something which could protect us from such scary interference. How about that helmet of Magnito... Haha

Jennifer Proxenos November 2, 2021 at 12:21 AM Your poems are history bound, I think you will become a Wordsworth or a Byron - you will receive many honors during your life time and so deservedly so with stupendous poetry like yours dear friend Paghunda. Love and hugs, Jennifer. Paghunda Zahid November 2, 2021 at 5:42 AM Oh goodness, that's really kind of you Proxenos :)

Sara Kendrick November 1, 2021 at 4:05 AM A person can only know another's heart if that person lets you in. Even married couples who have been married for years and years only know what the other ones lets them know. you have a very nice poetic way of expressing how you feel. I enjoyed reading your work. Sara Paghunda Zahid November 1, 2021 at 5:24 AM Hi Sara, you are right. I believe we should let our loved ones know all about our hearts, and they should let us know about theirs. Life would be at easy this way, beautiful, peaceful. Thank you!
