Notes About The Poem

Searching For Love

He feels a flurry of a breeze,
A warm zephyr wriggling and writhing
Amongst the newly formed oval leaves
Of a forest of samara laden birch trees.
It's like a melody for him.
Can it lead him to the one who left him?
Where will he find her? Where is she hiding?
She is his all, his only tender sweetheart.

Alas it was his fault he lost her.
All began with a misunderstanding.
But the icy cold north wind was blowing.
Snow fell and windows were covered with ice.
And he did nothing to bring in some warmth.
One day she left him in the cold.

Only those we love can really hurt us. All it takes is the wrong word at the wrong time to really cut deeply.. Deep enough to drive the one we love away forever. Good job here as always Victor. God Bless, JB

Emotive and expressive work. The ladies have to have some warmth and understanding for sure. A very nice work expressing those emotions. Your presence at my page was uplifting. Sara

We often later regret the way we treat our loved ones, Victor. I hope he finds her again, but he may have to change his ways to keep her. A beautiful but sad poem. Have a blessed Easter, Victor! Hugs, Carolyn

Poignant write, Victor. Ruminating in sorrow. Love can do that.
