Poem Of Love

When the first rays of the sun broke through the clouds,

When the birds greeted the morn with their chirpy songs,

When the flowers danced gaily with the gentle breeze,

It was then that I wrote a poem of nature.

 

When the warmth of a smile gladdened me,

When the wisdom of life braved me,

When the little secrets of thoughts shared me,

When that confident hand assured me,

It was then that I wrote a  poem of friendship.

 

When the sorrow of death pained me,

When the tears of hatred saddened me,

When the hunger of the poor starved me,

When the wars of destruction tore me,

It was then that I wrote a poem of grief.

 

When the depth of words moved me,

When the love of life enlivened me,

When the loyalties of soul grappled me,

When the moments immemorable remembered me,

When the eyes of profound emotions held me,

When the tears of joy touched me,

When the hands so gentle caressed me,

When the true love of hearts loved me,

It was then that I wrote the poem of love,

Nothing, but the poem of love.
