Yesterday Came

Yesterday came
When I saw his face
And along withered joys
It brought his grace

We did not have to bear
Not a shred of pain
Nor regrets
Could make us refrain

Our eyes embraced
Out hearts found their way
As if yesterday
Had never gone away

Tell yesterday
“Come again tomorrow”
For no place is left
In our hearts.. for sorrow




A later edition:
This poem was written in a kind of game on a site for “the poets to be”, the rule of the game is choosing a title, any title and then ask others to write anything that relates to the title. And see who gets the most stars from the critics who could be anyone visiting the site.
Ok now let’s play this game :
I will chose a title from one of my older poems To You , I want you now to write whatever inspiration you get from the title or from the poem and write it down, there will be no judgments here, you are free to write whatever comes to mind, no restrictions what so ever, you only have to stick to the title and it doesn’t have to be a poem, a paragraph will do and you can chose to write it in Arabic or English. Just let it flow.

To You I’m going to gladly send
at a rate of 299 792 458 ems per es
in vacuum, air, on the shore or undersea
an es-em-es and maybe an em-em-es
either one of which you’ll comprehend
and hopefully you’ll laugh a plenty
at all the mobile jokes that I will send!

To You...

Before
You came into my life
Did each breath feel as sweet?
Did I smile
and giggle
and play
Like I do with you
Now?
Every morning
I awake hearing your voice in my ears
And your song in my heart.

I love you

To you...

Far, In a cold and lonely night,
In the dark, the moon comforts me.
Tell… can you see her silver light?
Stars shining down above high sea.

From afar I send love letters,
Empty arms, I sit and wonder-
Are you wearing your pink sweater-
to keep warm. Do nights seem colder?

Stars above you, jealous skies.
Your sweet words, I so treasure.
I dream of innocent dark eyes,
Long walks, memories of pleasure.

Wait for me under a palm tree.
Under cotton clouds so patiently.
By rivers of hope lies destiny,
Where love will blossom,
You and me.

To You...I ask...
Was it a hard task

To love and let go
This...I must know

Your love that has died
and the tears that I cried

To You...I inquire
Of the burning fire

That lives within my heart
Now that we are apart

To You...I plead
With all my greed

A spell I shall now cast
For you to forget the past

Of the mistakes that I made
That caused your love to fade

To You...I say
On this very day
Let us fly away
And forget about yesterday...

huh....shrayich???

A ti amor de mi corazón
aunque eres un poco sobón
y algunas veces tan putón
Sal ya de este rincón
y vete a limpiar el salón

لك
لك أنا شلت القلب.... و رميته
بكامل قواي..... تحت رجلك حطيته
و قلت يا قلبي.... اسمعني.إن داسك..... بكيفه
و إن شالك من الارض و باسك..... بكيفه
حبيبتي هذا القلب..... تحت أمرك مشيته
تحضنينه و إلا تبعدينه...... تراني بالبدايه قطيته

I don't know why most poems revolved around love and honey :P

Anyways here is my take, and my muse came in Arabic this time!!

لك.... ناشري

لك قصيدة
قد اوصدت نفسها في العلية
تخشى الطمس
تخشى اللمس
تخشى قصمة الرقيب العتية

لك قصيدة
جعلت من الغبار غلافا
يمسح نقطتين
ويبقي عبرتين
تحيل من السطور ضفافا
تستجي الامل
تفيض بالخجل
لامة لم تصن حرمة قلم
لامة خذلت سلطان الكلم
لامة لا تقرا باسم ربها
وارتضت
ان تكون كالشيخ الهرم
يحرم النعمة
!ليبيح الالم

Great idea Ruby!
and Eva i liked your's, original!now here's mine:

To You..
Do you feel it was like yesterday also?
Merde!
Nothing scares me now like the idea of ever losing you
Promise me you'll always be by my side?
You know my weaker side..
You are my weaker side

To all
This has been by far my favorite post, I loved all the contributions made by the poets and the poetesses and I read them may be more than ten times. Talented, creative and had me entertained all weekend. I hated to end it by publishing a new post, thank you all, you really brought joy to my heart like a cool summer breeze.

elegance
أنا قلبي مو طايحن من عيني
أنا لها طوعت كل شرايني
يوم القلب ماهزته أحاسيسي
رميته مثل ما ترمين المهملاتي
وأضن المعني واضح بكلماتي
(أيا)
ياحلوها يوم كحلت أوراقي

Oh ayya, it used to be better :'(

I contemplated a writing career once and took a detour, but thanks for this post - it was quite refreshing, and took me years back to my teens when I used to scribble :P
