I have walked in dry land
Throat burning like a thirsty donkey
Hoping to find a swampy around
To soothe my arising desire
I have wondered in rain
Looking for a smiling sun
Hoping to bask a little
To dry my wet clothes
I have strode in cloudy cold wind weather
Thinking of hot coffee
Hoping to heat myself from cold
To feel the warmth and comfort
I have trailed in frost
Bitten by frostbite
Hoping to find a campfire just near
To chase the chill away of me
I have searched for spring of love
Wishing to quench my thirst
Hoping to find a fountain of pure spring waters
To console my thirsty of chastity

dear poet
did you ever consider, as you searched
from one change of weather
to another
between the breeze, that foreshadows
a change in weather
maybe, you
and we, all
were too busy to hear, that whisper
guiding us, asking us to wait
stay
because love, itself
is on its way, to us...
lol
(have you seen a film called
'sliding doors'
if not, check it out
the theme of your poem
is so in sync, with the films
theme)
again, another lovely read
thank you! dear Poet
I haven't seen it maybe I should check it out...oh wow thank you!
