True love is not a greeting card...

-



True...love is not a greeting card

Holding all feel close to my heart
My love for you can't be painted on a canvas
Glancing all through my thought
My love for you can't be printed on a card
True...love is not a greeting card

My love for you has no wings to fly and reach you
My love for you has no shape to fill and treat you
True...love is not a greeting card

It can't be prepared ...sorted by  fixed sizes
it can't be diluted ...weakened by rigid means
it can't be shared ...by signing deals
it can't be inherited...by owning  trades
True...love is not a greeting card

I love you and you love me is not a statement
I love you and you love me is not an agreement

it's the silent music which touches the chord of the heart
it's the brilliant light which shines the yards of the mind
it's the coolest  shower  which soothes the moments of life
it's the warmest  passion which ignites the ecstasy of soul

True love is not a greeting card...

I like how you first expressed all the things that love is NOT & and ended with four beautiful lines of what love IS. I also like the form you wrote this poem in, PT.

You've turned my prompt title into a mystery to be solved and it becomes more poignant with each repetition: It is true, and it is also true love. Warm and cool, soft and loud, you show it not a word to be bantered but a state of being: Heart, mind, life and soul. Bravo!

Friends are like memories

Friends are like memories Some good… some bad Some sweet…   some mad True you can choose them But it’s they who decide…. to stay or leave Friendships are like cyclic process You meet …you mingle You treat…you part No one is permanent No one is life long They keep coming and going Some come for a season Some come with a reason Remember…they are like memories In fact …with time, friends become memories You evolve… Your thought evolve… Your memories evolve Bad may become good Good may be become bad…. Seasons do change…reasons may differ Remember… Friends are friends forever Friends remain in memories forever For Poets United Poetry Pantry #293

Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din?????

-
Mukesh is my favorite singer. And when I am young….specially during teenage days I use to madly listen to his songs. There is a kind of magic in his voice with inexplicable sadness…. That use to take me altogether to a different world. There are n numbers of Mukesh songs….which I know by heart and can sing along! But this one is like the ultimate…..Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din! Whenever I listen… there will be definitely tears in my eyes…. by the time the song is complete! The voice, the lyrics and the music….no match at all! And today I don’t know why? after long... long... time I just felt like listening to it! All those …who are sensitive at heart can listen and enjoy! Kyonki…. ”Baadhe saukyamane bhaavana raanevoy! AA yeruke nischalaanandamoy…Brahamaanandamoy”! Learn Telugu if you want to follow it!
