Father and Son Love Redux | G. S. Katz

Fathers and Sons: Love Redux

My dad wasn’t wordy
I can’t remember affection
He never told me he loved me
If he did, I don’t remember it

Strong silent type he was
I grew up quiet
Till I started to speak more
Then everyone wished I’d shut the hell up

My mom told me my dad loved us very much
I wanted to hear it from him
On my wedding day he said it
Collectively in a toast he pronounced his love grandly

I always wanted more from him
I wanted his knowledge, his craft
He’s gone 20 years now
I’m still trying ……

Your Home | Danijela Trajkovic - Read Poetry Online by Talented Contemporary Poets

Your Home | Danijela Trajkovic

Come
To your home

No one knows
Except you
Where its door is
What its walls look like
Its windows
Its roof
If there is a terrace or not
And from which material was built

Come
Whenever you feel
Like coming home
When you get tired of
Wandering
People
Noise
Whenever you crave
Smile of the fire on your body
Steamed up mirror on lips
Mute talk of fingers
Blue sky in the night
Luna in your lap

Come
When you remember
That your home is empy
Without you

Come
And go again
Whenever you desire
Wandering
People
Noise

Your home is your home
Doesn’t long for
Wandering
People
Noise
But for the smoke
On its chimney
That you bring.

The Bridge | Krushna Chandra Mishra - Read Poetry Online by Talented Contemporary Poets

The Bridge | Krushna Chandra Mishra

This is the very same old bridge.
I remember every bit of what once
happened here to be a matter to be
repeated time and again over several
of these past thirty five plus years,

You think perhaps I have forgotten
everything you said the first time
we met here unknown to each other.

I am with you today and that very day
has been with me all these years renewing
itself with every changing season as the day
grows longer or shares a part of it to make
our nights together longer for intenser moods
for a life of dense and complete experience.

Let’s then in growing humility acknowledge
all honest gifts of love and fulfillment this
bridge in its best stimulating silent presence
has bestowed upon us when we were strangers
to bridge our hearts for a happy marital boon for ever.

Insight | Dinka Bednjacic - Read Poetry Online by Talented Contemporary Poets

Insight | Dinka Bednjacic

I found a shine
in a smile,
glow on your face
even when you cry

There is no regret-
in the words you write,
or the letters you’ve never posted-
Like all the loves you have found-
Loves,
You have
Lost it
I have insight in the ways we have lived

Becoming open to the gentle rain-
like a meadows in spring
When all is due to be born

You are such gladness,
the shadow that will shelter behind the door,
found in a place that we would cry,
turns away
To wither and die

You are truly
a listener of your own thought,
the warrior of wounds

This joy,
will ease our fears,
with a baby
in hand

Hold
Gaze for a while

Love Me My Love | Laljee Verma - Read Poetry Online by Talented Contemporary Poets

Love Me My Love | Laljee Verma

My eyes search someone in the crowd
Vision has dimmed but not the hope
Waiting for the face my soul searches
To relish the serene beauty, which
Springs the life in me!
Morning wakes me with golden hands
The blue sea churns some tunes
Cuckoos sing sweet melodies
Makes me feel romantic and young!

My dreams shatter why? I know not
Why nights are not a bit longer
I see you in the mirror of my dreams
And lament when the mirror shatters!

I always felt you beside me
In my joyous moments, and in my grief
In my thoughts and in my daydreams
You were always there as a part of my soul!

Love me, my love, before shadows
Disappear with heralding morn’
In a sultry summer casting a gloom!

Sit on the cold rock by the stream
And drown in the serenading music
Drops, falling from the wet leaves
Awakens dreams that you are here

Listen to the song of the ocean blue
And the lovely tunes nature plays!

Love me, darling, endlessly,
Dance with me in the golden hue
The golden horse with the golden mane
Has been waiting for us, did you know?
