Lora Colon: Poet Poem by Kassem Oude

Lora Colon: Poet

Rating: 3.5


Dear Loraine you've musical name
In poetry world you have fame
Your sheer love's honest for the one
Entices me like warm rays of sun

Light verses easy clear like your soul
Why you've not attained your goal?
You swim in loneliness sea and sorrow
You pass nights aching till morrow

If I were near your around
I would become friend and a mate
Our souls could gather on same ground
I would be the good one, but too late

Your shadow roams in my space
I connect with you through your breath
Which blows scent breeze on my face
And makes my heart full of mirth

I would kiss you by big heart
And hug you through ocean waves
I hope my words fill a part
Of your garden as I crave.

[two years later}...Oh, Juan, good try! but YOU had " BETTER GO BACK & EDIT....YOUR comment. " attentio" ? " sentex" ? try syntax: " Syntax states the rules for using words, phrases, clauses and punctuation, specifically to form sentences. " [NOT a tax on sin! ] i haven't heard that word in years and i'm glad i have reviewed its meaning; i may use it in poem comments. bri :)

I were near your around...........? maybe near year round? Kassem, you Romeo! i bet you can't catch her! and besides, i think your wife might beat you with a broom! ! And hug you through ocean waves............... a warning: watch out for the sharks! ! ! ~~~^~~~~^~~~ as another fan of Lora, i salute your good taste in poetry and poets! we used to tease one another, but my wife beat ME with a baseball bat! ! ! to MyPoemList. bri :) p.s. i like that you varied the rhyme scheme. i sometimes do that, especially if i'm 'in a bind', but usually i stick with aabb throughout a poem.

Thank you, Kassem. Your poem touches my heart, and I will treasure it always. Please be aware that at times I feel intense emotions, and it is at this time that I write my poems. But there are also times when I am showered with blessings and wonderful moments, as I am now because of your dear poem, and so everything balances out, and my life is one of contentment. Thank you again.
