When I love a man, I speak no words nor make sentences <br />When I love a man, I understand the language of the moon <br />and the laughter of the sun. <br /> <br />When I love a man, I wear the sea <br />Blow kisses to the wild flowers <br />and make date with the stars. <br /> <br />When I love a man, I seldom close my eyes <br />Nights forget to come and days become songs <br />months have no meanings. <br /> <br />When I love a man, I see poetry everywhere <br />I welcome my paint brush, my pen <br />and I waltz with various shades of colors. <br /> <br />When I love a man, I knead dough from precious stones <br />sweater from dark liquorish chocolate <br />and furniture from silent moments. <br /> <br />When I love a man, time pose <br />trains tango, airplanes scribble on the sky <br />the tree branches play the cello <br />while the drum learn how to whistle. <br /> <br />When I love a man, my feet have wings <br />My tongue writes music <br />I no longer desire to talk. <br /> <br />© 2009 Emu Getachew<br /><br />Emu Getachew<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-i-love-a-man/
