On the sun, I write poetry, on the table, I write poetry, on the hardly opened window, on the birds which sing, on the sky which resists, I write poetry, on the snow which falls, I write that I miss you, on stars, I write poetry, in the night silence, I write that you learnt me to everything, on the ignorant mountains, on the boats of my childhood, I write poetry to include you, I write words to know you, on the silence of comets, I write poetry to fly away, I write poetry on blackboards, on ponds where we drown, I write poetry, on the picked roses, I write the fear of losing you, on the indiscreet churches, on the clocks of kitchens, I write poetry to breathe, I write poetry to simplify, so that all books open, I write all which subjects me, I write simply, on the sun, on the stars, I write poetry, on the sky which resists, and slowly, So that the world knows your smile, knows last your heart which trifles with all lyings. |

Yep, yann, I too write poetry because I must. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

It is as if Universe itself with all it contains inspires you to write, to give voice to your innermost feelings about everything that accelerates your heartbeat. Exquisite, dear Yann. Margherita |

islander - A fine example testifying that it isn't blood that flows in a poet's veins but ink and all the passion it puts to pen. Enjoyed. Namyh |

Yann I always love these list type of poems because they create such a flow of emotions which you have done so very well in this piece. Just bursting with line after line of delights. Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |

Fine writing, Yann. It's sums up all the reasons for writing poetry.Enjoyed reading your thoughts. "The secret behind survival of mankind is kindness and love within our hearts" |
