~*My most favorite poems*~

by xxgirasolexx - last update: Jul 26, 2005

"Colors" - by Yevgeny Yevtushenko

"When your face came rising
above my crumpled life,
the only thing I understood at first
was how meager were all my possessions.
But your face cast a peculiar glow
on forests, seas, and rivers,
initiating into the colors of the world
uninitiated me.
I’m so afraid, I’m so afraid,
the unexpected dawn might end,
ending the discoveries, tears, and raptures,
but I refuse to fight this fear.
This fear--I understand--
is love itself. I cherish this fear,
not knowing how to cherish,
I, careless guardian of my love.
This fear has ringed me tightly.
These moments are so brief, I know,
and, for me, the colors will disappear
when once your face has set..."

"In Passing" - by Nikolai Otrada

Caught up in the whirlpool of passion,
My mind's in a dizzy spin.
And you just say,
"I was passing
By chance
And by chance, dropped in..."
Silence. The minutes go whirling.
We've nothing left to say, you and me.
You let out:
"The train leaves early.
It's an express, you see."
The train...
It'll leave in a hurry...
Never to be returned...
I waited for you
In a flurry;
To let you know all
I yearned--
To say,
"By this weather I'm baffled.
There's clouds and rain in my heart..."
And you:
"See me off on the platform.
Here's the time when I start!"
The air in the street's all murky.
Spring's beginning today.
You left--you went off--
And with you
Carried my joy away.

1938

"I crave your mouth..." - by Pablo Neruda

I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.
Silent and starving, I prowl through the streets.
Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day
I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps.

I hunger for your sleek laugh,
your hands the color of a savage harvest,
hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,
I want to eat your skin like a whole almond.

I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,

and I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,
hunting for you, for your hot heart,
Like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.

~*Stars*~ - by ME, yes, ME

just before the close of day
the sun lights its thousand faces
one by one to guide the night
they each appear
like diamonds on a blanket of velvet
each flickers like a candle in an outdoor arena
yet there among those faces
i see
your face
as we gaze into each others eyes
these windows to the soul
your love floods my veins bringing life
dreams come
our souls fly past the highest mountain
to dance with each other
among these stars forever
