I am a shimmer

I am a shimmer

I am a turning page, turning time
I am a shimmer on the waves
I am the sleek fur of a black cat
I am a door that opens to an echo

I am a shimmer on the waves
I am an empty chair bleached by the rain
I am a door that opens to an echo
I am a piece of poetry

I am an empty chair bleached by the rain
I am the scent of a love note
I am a piece of poetry
I am a cobblestone in Berlin

I am the scent of a love note
I am a missing signature
I am a cobblestone in Berlin
I am a sunlight from the moon

I am a missing signature
I am the sleek fur of a black cat
I am a sunlight from the moon
I am a turning page, turning time.

Essence of human emotion

by Sid Sarshar on

Essence of human emotion captured simple and raw.  To be able to emotionally go to a place which allows you feel this way and write like this is a gift.

So beautiful.

by Raoul1955 on

I am ending my evening by reading this poem a few times and actually visualizing every line of it.  Very refreshing.  :-)

Cool!

by Ari Siletz on

Interesting that the poem avoids cycling back to the top with the alternative:

I am a missing signature

I am a turning page, turning time.

I am a sunlight from the moon

I am the sleek fur of a black cat

 

Makes a stament about the nature of time.

Moon reflects the light from the sun ...... so why not ?  besides this is poetry .... in poetry you can say anything you wish .... in poetry you can walk with your hands and you can talk with your ear .... 

Poetry has soul ....   : )

Beautiful work Azadeh  and I love the picture too .....

Sunlight from the moon?! Forgive me but I am puzzled

by Disenchanted on

 

         What is sunlight from the moon? Technically when sun is reflected off the moon we calll it moonlight and that is certainly a notion found in poems often...

          You inspired me with my own poem:

         I am a blog on Iranian.com

          I am a b in the blog

          I am a dot in a b

           I am who I was and who I will be...
