Hi Tanja I really like your poetry…short and sweet- not many words but they convey much emotion…kind of reminds me of the spirit of haiku. Most of my poems are longer than yours but a Sufi poet named Rumi (1207-1273) inspired me to write a short one of my own. Rumi wrote: The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along. and he also wrote: I am so small I can barely be seen. How can this great love be inside me? Look at your eyes. They are small, but they see enormous things. I wrote this poem and posted it on this web site under my nom de plume, Alan Strand: 'A Dangerous But Very Short Liaison' A small kiss, And yet I reminisce About Love done, And dream wildly about What may have just begun. Keep up your wonderful art! Al Arsenault Port Moody, BC, Canada
