THE MELODY SHALL NOT VANISH

THE MELODY SHALL NOT VANISH

                                            My heart shall not harden!
                                            It turns off the moon,
                                            and denies the moth from navigating the night,
                                            It covers the sun
                                            and robs the birds from calling the morning,
                                            It halts the wind and stop the leaves
                                            from falling into earth and a bond forming,
                                            It stops the flow
                                            and robs the sea from opening his arms
                                            to receive the river and forever transforming,
                                            It stops the kiss from reaching the lips
                                            and stop the bud from turning into flower.
                                            I am on my guard!
                                            My heart shall not harden,
                                            There is too much beauty
                                            amongst the sunflowers bright.

Love everything about this Bernadette, a fresh and original take on the moon which does indeed kill the day and all the beauty which indeed is no longer visible once the heart hardens. A powerful statement of not giving up I suppose. Excellent x

Who Discarded the Red Rose?

A contemplation of my early poem Who Crushed the Yellow Rose

Who discarded her heart

after the storm has gone and passed?...
