Save Poetry Poem by Zibele Mrasi

Save Poetry

Rating: 4.0


Water fall emotions and dreams
Stories history and fairy tales
Sun flowers and roses
birds lover and stars

A memory or just an image
A beautiful song or just a beat of a drum
A life as a woman or just story of a man

Death of hell or beauty of heaven
Journey to a place or road we have walked
Tears we saw or laughter they had

They wonder with no written words
As poetry has lost writers
As poetry long for poets
Like a watch on wall
It slowly walk to be a massage

My mind wanders and the result is in my hand-written words, I read your words and wonder, 'Are these just written words? ' Then I realize, your words calls for more words. Good poetry man.

It is an excellent creation, pointing out to young generation their ignorance and indifferent attitude To beauties, songs, or any good literary work, song or fine art it is not a sign of growth and worth.
