Wake Up, O Heart Poem by Nosheen Irfan

Wake Up, O Heart

Rating: 5.0


O heart!
Wasted by the worldly cares
Think not of what's lost
Look around and afar
Wake up to the mellow hum
Of the trees
Let it sink into you
Let it take siege
Of your body and soul
Let yourself be carried away
By the motionless dance
of the morning breeze
Carried to a world
Without hurts and hassles
Be in this moment
Let the moment be in you
There is life, around you
In the flow of the river
That flows with gentleness
On its natural course
There is love, awaiting you
In the petals of the rose
That burst into bloom
With a velvet softness.

I am such a fan of this declaration of independence. This freeing of the spirit from the shackles of regret. Nature is prominent in its freedom, the river's flow. The velvet softness. Let it sink into you. We stand in our own way, masters of our own prison. A theme so well expressed and close to my heart.....splendid.
