Along The Lines Of Summer Love Poem by Roula Pollard

Along The Lines Of Summer Love

Rating: 4.0


On the mountaintops of hope,
In the vastness of reality, action and vision,
on the patterned surface of mature eucalyptus trees,
on the branches of the future,
On ethereal wisdom of dawn,
On the song of the wind scented by cypress trees,
On the soul of mankind,
After the departure of confusion
Along the railway tracks of unfinished ideas
of nations, on the national road of compassion,

on the continents of life,
where centerian trees sing
On the face of village house rooftops,
On the staircases of expected light,
On mountainous footpaths of history,
On the rocky extensions of the heart,
On the memory of a past love affair,
In the warmth of ocean currents,
under the waves

in a future caress, on the kiss of the day,
On a summer morning love affair,
On the expected existence of the future,
On yet unexplored ancient sites,
true upon the earth,
On the water of the future,
At the spring of the truth,
On the earth of the body,
At the center of balance,
precise upon the earth,
I find you powerful,
I discover your body
In the deep ocean
of the heart

Freedom.

Excellent the inovative metaphors which paint so vividly the perception of feelings.I'll try to translate it into greek, as I have done with so many other great poems of great poets.I'm sure -in case of a succeed translation-it could sound great too.

Lovely piece of poetry nicely brought forth in good poetic diction with conviction. An insightful depiction of the essence of freedom and divinely ordained duty of the heart which is to love. Thanks for sharing Roula. Please read my poem POETIC MASTERPIECE.
