Once at first meeting

[Mohammad Ahmad]

I would patently pour out my emotion
Perhaps or likely to be agreeing on
Once at first meeting I kissed her twice
Her cheek soon dewed through sunlight
I kept another kissing for a tomorrow dawn.
Perhaps the dawn kissing her cheek thrice
Her cheek turned dewed to examine me
As an apple breaks open like my wound
I do the mistake to forgive from a coming sin.
But the grapes make me staggering on my feet
And for a while I saw my kissing on the moon
Welcomed and waving a hand on a full fancy
I do not care to the passers by my street
But under the shadow I kept some sorrow
Seeing no mistake, I had done

[Mohammad Ahmad]

another poem I write now:
Nevertheless, I owned a shattered heart,
I make it a shelter to thy cheek
When the flickering dawn shed on
And the sunlight covering the farms
I do misgive to return for my soul
As many winding roads I crossed yet
Once the matter is either success or fail
Among a winding road, I curved my eyelids
To examine my tear if any drops
There your cheek alarmed me in slight curve
Hissing with the wind to be sinless
I am the ever dancer when twilight comes
And my supper is the sun's rose

[NikolaiI]

These were quite nice. There were several lines that struck me -

But the grapes make me staggering on my feet
And for a while I saw my kissing on the moon


When the flickering dawn shed on
And the sunlight covering the farms


And the following lines also spoke to me:

Hissing with the wind to be sinless
I am the ever dancer when twilight comes
And my supper is the sun's rose


I enjoyed the alliterating of hissing and sinless - and to be sinless is a noble goal.

If you don't mind, I will share a bunch of quotes ;p


these are from Hanh, I thought they were great.


“It is possible to live twenty-four hours a day in a state of love. Every movement, every glance, every thought, and every word can be infused with love.”

“A real love letter is made of insight, understanding, and compassion. Otherwise it's not a love letter. A true love letter can produce a transformation in the other person, and therefore in the world. But before it produces a transformation in the other person, it has to produce a transformation within us. Some letters may take the whole of our lifetime to write.”

“May our heart's garden of awakening bloom with hundreds of flowers.”

“You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.”

“In true love, you attain freedom.”

“The most precious gift we can offer anyone is our attention. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.”

“If you love someone but rarely make yourself available to him or her, that is not true love.”

“If we do not know how to take care of ourselves and to love ourselves, we cannot take care of the people we love. Loving oneself is the foundation for loving another person.”



Also, he teaches several gatas (I still do not have a perfect definition of the word - I understand it to mean "gone," but these are like mantras...") but simply. . teaching to be present. .

"Darling, I am here for you,"
"Darling, I know you are there, and I am so happy you are there."

are the two I remember, of the four..


and a poem I wrote yesterday or two days ago. .


Only on this year, on this day
do I know what you mean
when you say
the breath within the breath
the life within the life -
It is that fragrance of bliss,
hidden fold of existence
which gives life another dimension -
"In true love, you attain freedom."



Just some thoughts I have always enjoyed. . he teaches on so many other topics, but these ideas of simply being present, and so forth, are so powerful. . in my life, few things have ever been as transforming as such ideas as these. . simple and well known - but expounded on so nicely.


keep up the good work! will enjoy to see your later poems as well :)

Peace

[Mohammad Ahmad]

That's nice from you to come and read, indeed I am not very influenced on writing for love but as we are poets we have to describe people emotions and I might be influenced and desired on nature and shall write for nature or thing of our close society affairs
Thank you again
