Oh! Where lies the cure for this wounded heart? Bleeding since the day you decided to depart Foolishly in futile search of a herb have I spent the years! Full knowing that the cure lies within thy heart! Deepak Menon |

Deepak....Excellent as usual. Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. -William Wordsworth- |

Four lines of passion can say so much. Great poem. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

If there be nectar to be found in the insides of a poison ivy Then I, for all that's worth, am at will to kiss a stinging bee If this pilgrim in an ever search of love might find its roots Then I, for all that matters, would stretch to reach its fruits! .......... Hey deepak, I really enjoyed your quatrain a lot... wonderful.. regards, sudhir |

A wonderful but bitter tale, Deepak. I can think of many more productive cures, though Lotharingia "Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo |

Thank You all - lovers to a man (or woman) I can tell! Like I said before - the quatrain is facinating in the fact that it forces one to confine the size of the poem to 4 lines only - and that too with limitations to the rhyming - and yet is long enough to allow one to effectively express an emotional statement! And smiles at Lotharingia - what do you think the expression "herb" stood for eh! Deepak |
