(dedicated to Sr. Gabriel Gárcia Márquez, a great storyteller) <br /> <br />In your heart are the birds, the breeze, the flowers, the lamb, the sunshine <br />Much pleasure, then from thee, much more, must glow, must flow <br />Of snow upon the mountains and the wanderers' camps <br />Then how grace a rose? I feel, I know a way! <br /> <br />One two! One two! One two! and through and through <br />To see love descending and see love ascending <br />We count our joys not by what we have <br />Drawing Love's bands more tight <br /> <br />That there's a God, that there's a Savior too <br />Ah, love, let us be true, to one another! <br />And the rocks melt with the sun <br />And I sunned it with smiles <br /> <br />Alluring dreams voyage me <br />Through celestial love <br />Reassure me <br />Remember <br /> <br />Chant of innocence story <br />Invigorate less melody <br />Recollect me <br />Remember <br /> <br />Leaf of a sultry tree <br />Behold blurry hope <br />Reinforce me <br />Remember <br /> <br />Sweet Love of Youth, forgive, if I forget thee <br />Begin, and cease, and then again begin <br />The blessed rain is coming too <br />There're oceans in the sky <br /> <br />Storming the world with sorrow's wind and fire <br />Moonlight does not require the pathway <br />And makes a pretty playfellow <br />Of a surf-decorated shore <br /> <br />With things whose tunes are played out and forgotten <br />Away from books, away from art, the day vanished <br />The heart recognizes thee, alone, alone, alone! <br />Where both deliberate, love is right, the light <br /> <br />(inspired by Enigma's song - The Child in Us)<br /><br />Ahmad Shiddiqi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nostalgia-35/
