Knowing You

Poems written in the 80s

Knowing you has made
My life a paradise
Where beauty fills the eyes
Where the scent of blooming flowers
And dews of tears from heaven above
Glitters like a thousand diamonds
Under the bright sunlight
Grass tall like steeple
Grow free and wild
Birds of all kinds
Each with it’s own beauty
Fills the morning sky
Whispering pines
Mesmerized by the enchanting tunes
Dance according to its rhythm
But life, is dead
And eclipse of darkness
Surrounds me
For without you
Birds no longer chirps
Grass once freely grows
Now choke with weeds
Strangling all beauty
Grief and sorrow encompasses me
Each passing moment
Sorrow, mount with great intensity
Like a knife
Slicing deeply into my heart
Life, is yet another painting
A scenery
A scenario of darkness.
