I dream the ringing up
From the depths of my wishes
Yet when I listen closely
The phone is really beeping
Are you really calling?
Or am I night dreaming again?
It is definitely not a figment
Of my fertile imagination
I’m filled with joy unspeakable
As I hear you through the earpiece
The happiness is unstoppable
And I break into a smile
A flush spreads over my skin
Your cool voice upon my senses
Brings relief to my scattered thoughts
There is no more need to worry
As above all these things is Love
There’s naught else to do
But to put a halo on you
You’re my angel...

Love d poem Myne & can't wait or d weekend either even tho it goes by super fast.
ReplyDeleteHalo....hello...
ReplyDeleteNice!
The things love will do to you!
I think the first 6 lines (up to where it says "Or am I dreaming again") are truly magical. You're transported to wherever the persona is, and you feel their emotions and the mire they're in. And the poem while developing refuses to move on at the same time. That symbolises the persona's sense of confusion(?) and even conflict. I loved the structure of this one. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletebeautiful poem, have a great weekend myne!
ReplyDeleteoooo :)
ReplyDeleteoooo :)
ReplyDeleteoooo :)
ReplyDeleteThanks all
ReplyDelete@Nana Yaw, your type feedback I really like, cos I am still learning.
@Shels, speechless eh? LOL...
This is so cool!Since I'm in that season, I'm also reading yours and smiling.I love it!
ReplyDeleteA phone call is nice, but nothing beats seeing the one you love in person.
ReplyDelete2cute, I'm happy for you, please enjoy.
ReplyDelete@Jen, that is absolutely true. Phones are just second best when the first is not possible.
