Humble Heart

HUMBLE HEART         

       Fragrance and flavor of frolic friendship flowed.
       Ray of genuine friendship gladly glowed.
       Attention on each other’s needs achieved.
       Great companionship on dependence received.
       Impulsive ideology of love on your side developed.
       Longing for you neither I felt nor asked for your love.
       Embarrassed, but broke your  heart over and above.
       I left you and ran away.

       Hot happy heart of mine turned foolish and helpless.
       Earnest Emotional involvement with someone else.
       Admiration, adoration oozing from fountain of my passion.
       Refusal from my beloved I received, not reciprocation.
       The humble hearts of two friends broke to weep with willow.
       Sonata of two souls sung in symphony with sad swallow.
 
        If I stayed with patience trying to realise you
        Might a happy ending adorned me.
