Come My Sweet Heart Poem by malini kadir

Come my sweet heart
Come to me
Over the dark skies
Afloat on nomadic clouds
Descend on my garden
And fill my home with radiance
Dilly dally a while
Add joyous touch here and there
Make burdened heart
A smiling one;
Shy passive beat in even tempo
As you kiss the brows neat!

The garden cries for water
Dry with neglect stands
The body is out cold
You left it too late to speak
Let your love in eyes shine
Your voice the warmth carry
That your heart longs to impart
Just too late
May be....that is fate

No! ! ! cries the beating heart! stop!
Be not so melodramatic
Touch the earth
In grounded Sanity
The seeds were with;
Good intentions planted
Not to whither away in drought
Under the harsh light of angry Sun
Tired and dejected
Waiting....Waiting....Waiting........
