Thirsty? ! Poem by nadia abduljabbar

Thirsty? !



If you were thirsty
For true love
That is like pure
Fountain water,
That feels like misty
Wonderful day
That brings life
Back even to dry hay
Or that is rather
Like tickling drizzle
Or breezy Shower
That engulfs your
Mind with an
Astounding surprise
Or may be even
As a diamond or jewel
Like chilly hail
That makes you shiver
In a very warm day
Then you are
Not alone in
Your painful longing
For the desert
Is thirsty too,
So don't coo,
The deep ocion
Is eager as well.
For pure sweet
Water and wants
To gulp purity
But cant have all
The peek of mountains
Are also thirsty
Every now and then
Though they might be
Covered with snow
But snow is frozen water
And you are frozen too
Yet the ice in the peek
Of a mountain melt
In summer and spring,
But you are not thirsty;
You don't melt
Because your frozen heart
Is killed.

Aloha Nadia... If you thirst for true love that is like pure fountain water, that feels like a misty wonderful day, that brings life even to dry hay or that is rather, like a trickling drizzle or breezy rain shower, one that engulfs your mind with an astounding surprise or may even be as a diamond or jewel; like the chilling hail that makes you shiver on a very warm day; Then you are not alone in your painful longing; For the desert is thirsty too so don't coo; The deep ocean is eager as well, for pure sweet water and wants... To gulp purity, but cannot have at all; the peaks of mountains are also thirsty; every now and then though they might be covered with snow; snow being frozen water and like you its frozen too; yet the ice on the peak of a mountain melts from early spring to summer; But you are not thirsty, you do not melt... because your frozen heart is killed. I have perused your bio and done the google thing... [Poetry is my most intimate friend, my passionate beloved, my loving family, my honest psychiatrist and my additional identity]... and you have displayed these traits herein... You lead one to such promise in this work... then let go a very good piece of prose just at the end... similar to real physical death... This is how relationships, life in general, and hopes of a specific result sometimes roll... I have taken, with respect, your words and edited them, for my purposes it is true... for these are good words... Thank you for your efforts, for your labour in this craft... and for your thoughts that you post expressing your views and experiences... please do allow US more... All of the best from this life, to you, and all of your relations... Michaelw1two.
