NOT JUST A MEMORY

NOT JUST A MEMORY

 

 There are those souls so clear and sweetThey hurt so easilyYou see it in their eyesThere are those souls so innocent
We need to step gentlyBefore we speak No cruelty . No lies.No trickeryThere are those who love so genuinelyWe need to hold them tenderlyThere are those we lose too soonWe need to hold them in every breathMore than just a passing memory
In LifeIn death.

Oh just so beautiful

You reach an arc that spans the world with love and understanding, an essence of what godly sages spread, you proclaim such noble values we just stand in awe of it, and nod at the manner you say so succinctly what love really is. The rythm, the words, the poem, described so well that we are left totally absorbed in the silence it brings, a silence pregnant with meaning. A most beautiful poem, the most beautiful poem I have ever read, Longobardolino. Annuccia.
