lonely heart

Running thru the meadow
So wild and free
Wind in my hair
Sun on my face
to be in God's grace

My heart
pounds so fast
so loud
if deafens me

Grass flows
like waves
in the sea

Cornflowers
of radiant blue
Blood red
poppies
an amazing
view

Rich colours
untouched
by human hand

Like a stained
glass window
an image
in the heart
will always
remain

Heart unafraid...

electricblue 'Lonely Heart' is a beautiful rendition of our individual experiences referred to as "stained glass window". The poet's use of simple words and short lines drive home the message embeded in the superb use of imagery in almost every line from the begining to the end, where the word 'remain' stands alone to further stress the theme of loneliness. A very good write from the heart of one who should not be alone. We are all here with you. Best wishes. T.

lonely heart

Hello my friend welcome to this site. Re my poem i am glad you could relate to the theme of loneliness. I am quite a solitary soul and spend time wandering physically and mentally to times of peace and harmony etc. This was when i was a teenager i used to walk through the farmers fields and find a spot under the trees sit a while watching the clouds pictures come to me i have to write then just to get up and run as fast as i can with no other in sight to feel the elements as if an animal in flight. Re the stain glass window i get lost in the images as the light streams through creating a time portal another dimention that i am honoured to be a part of. I just put my heart on paper thank you my friend Electricblue

stained heart

saw on a documentary about a cathedral that has blue stained glass and the secret for that kind of blue was so well kept that it remains a secret to this day thus are some relationships special in their own secrecy their own intimacies kept loveship This poems is very strong I love it

lonely heart

hello again my freind sorry been away from this site been trying to get new inspiration. I am glad you could relate to this poem. As you see i just love blue and when it is in a stained glass window the aura's are magic as the light filters through. I do feel it is a special relationship between the elements some time portals which you are priviledged to be a part of. Just magic But to feel the elements as you run down a hill and through the fields no one around with the wind rushing past you makes you feel so alive as an animal in flight you are on the edge. thank you my friend Electricblue
