Precious bit


The most precious thought
lost in her luscious lips,
my tears fall - drought
on her finger tips.

She deserts me, at last,
precious bit - gone too fast.

Simply delightful.
It is minimalist,
It says everything.

@rinaz: It's interesting how you guys brought in my ex ^^ Hehe... no, she wasn't on my mind... which is good. I just saw that photo and was inspired. It's totally not autobiographical :P Thanks for asking :)

Good poem, then I want to send a poem back to you, too.

The most treasurable feelings
find by his lyrical thoughts
her heart beat - heat
soundlessly in her breast

He warms her, at least,
treasurable bit - seal in last.


A copy of your lovely poem. :-)

@LilyChen: Hahaha, Lily! That's like overhauling or recycling my poem :P Good job. Made me smile in the morning :)

MKL said...

@Deeptesh: You posted under the poem. My poem is short and I moderate comments. Hence your confusion :)

Deeptesh said...

Well written indeed! He he...I did read your poem when I came for the first time!This one's a bit Hellenic which is why I luv it.But there's an uncomfortable metrical jerk when u use the dashes!Still, few words created a great impact!

MKL said...

@Deeptesh: Thank you. I will keep your thoughts in mind.

i do like it. the shortness of course goes along with the subject matter.. which is always a great poetic tool/technique :D

MKL said...

@floreta: Thanks! ;) I think a short poem with a single point is always great. I guess I'm not so good to write longer ones like you, since English is not my native language :)

why dont you put up the pic of your real ex?

anyway, sorry to hear about your loss.

September 8, 2009 12:04 AM  

MKL said...

@zewt: Thanks. But I don't put pics of my ex or me for that matter on my blog. I think it would be disrespectful. But if she gave me permittion, I wouldn't do it, too. The past is past. And the poem has nothing to do with her :)
