How Animals Grew In My Heart Poem by M. Asim Nehal

How Animals Grew In My Heart

Rating: 5.0


When the sun was about to set
And the moon showed its glimpses
The dull looking faces
Started to glow in my eyes
And the sleeping giant in me
Started to knock the doors of desires
The starry night with its overall twinkle
Ignited the white fire
And the animals painted on the walls
Started to come alive
With lustful eyes
And the frighten little soul
Gathered courage to push them back to the walls
The brimming moon
Showed the naked beauty to the eyes
And the front mirror
Reminded me the true reflection
The struggle was on for the whole night
And when the moon finally gave way
To the tangerine sun
The dew drops of desires slowly
Surrendered to the green grass
And hid beneath the vast earth.

Wowwww....splendid write. The desires of the flesh are so beautifully expressed in rich breath-taking imagery. The Nature elements have a deep impact on our feelings.
