This poem is not completely mine. One my friend Evgenia Tsvyatko gave me the outline of her poem written in Russian and the picture which has inspired her (you can see it below). She asked me if I can write an English version. I've finished it just yesterday. And here is the result. . . I wish you to fly with me on my wings But apple blossoms compose my plumage Too weak, they could raise only your image I spread them nowhere but in my dreams It’s true when I say I resemble a bird The genuine bird, I can sing so sweetly But you never hear my jovial twitter My voice uses to sound just in my head Oh, please let the wind blow extremely strong To tear my petals away forever To make me alive And to take us together Away from the tree On the wings of my song July'2013 http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/5521/n8h1.jpg |

A plaintive cry to be heard and seen and interacted with is what this very sad poem says to me. You friend should be proud of the interpretation. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

I hope she will like it. Did you see the picture? It really fits the idea! |

Yes, of course I saw the picture. She will like what you did with her poem I'm sure. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Thank you, James ) I have to say that I've found an error: "uses" instead of "used" ((( |
