Voice of the Dead
by mazHur

Why are you trembling with fear, my dear,
I am not going to hurt you,
I simply can't.
I am neither a tiger nor a snake
No canines, no fangs do I have;
I am neither lightening nor the lava
Flowing from a volcano's mouth;
I feel ashamed when I see you fear me.
You ought to be afraid of sharks and hawks
Who are always on the look out for you;
I am none of them, you know that;
Come and place a rose on my chest
While I bless you in my grave. :alien:

Indeed, you come up with a beautiful poem. Every time you gave a beautiful expression to your thought. They are simple and yet appealing.

Rather haunting or maybe mesmerizing. Right from the beginning it puts me in a trance. (Yikes! See how easy I would be to hypnotize? :()

I really like the line 'come and place a rose on my chest'.

I like this line too, but it puzzles me...'I feel ashamed when I see you fear me.'
