Recipe of love and the mortal <br />You have put soul to the earthen <br />Of the Moses it was said <br />In between the palms he would <br />To the toy doves he would breath <br />Life and then into the air fly <br />Like the dove of Moses <br />To my earthen ware <br />With love you breathe life <br />But not to fly <br />And then into possession <br />A fiery struggle for the warmth <br />And to the flight would you leave <br />Life when you it take back <br /> <br />Holding are you my soul with strings <br />You make me come but remember my love <br />Those who from love shall never come <br />In perpetual pain of longing addict <br />In emptiness they enter when freed ultimate <br />Bear with me the longing eternal <br />Unbriddled have you the power of love <br />In gradual taming and with tears long <br />The recipe you made not use it again <br />Back to the world for someone may think <br />What a madness you unleashed by a kiss <br />1/12/2008<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/but-not-to-fly/
