Once more my heart has taken wings <br />Once more has the lids been filled <br />Once more to the brim has the cup come <br />Once more the delights of sweet love <br />Once more on the pages of today <br />For tomorrow written word once more <br /> <br />Once more in the mirror of nature <br />Hence in my bosom some red of lips <br />Once more the wounds opened of the past <br />Once more I have heard story destitute <br />Once more I prayed to soul my helpless <br /> <br />Once more I heard lament longing <br />Once more I have been asked to twist fate <br />Write the tablet once more with no ink <br />Once more I cleared tears on a face <br />Owned once more all that was not mine <br /> <br />Once more I wished my hands of bounty <br />Once more I wished richness in poverty <br />23/12/2009<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/once-more-30/
