Tease Me Not! ! ! Poem by Shahzia Batool

Tease Me Not! ! !

Rating: 4.6


Hold your speed
O wayward Wind!
Do not tease
My restive mind-

Maltreat not
These flowers fair
Subdue not
All feelings kind-

Know? i think
For someone whose
Eyes are bright
But heart is blind-

Don't disturb
The heart-sick men
Joy's something
they never find-

So stop, and
Be my friend at once
Know? my goals
Are left behind-?

On the face of it so pleasing light and lovely...fine words.... superb sparkling string. Howevr i have an issue with the dichotomy in the eecond stanza. Also the useage of question marks in the last few lines, to me, defies logic. But poetry is always open to many interpretations, perhaps i am being obtuse. Blessings and cheers
