A grape

A grape

My sun its been too long
These days filled with rain
I need to hear your song
Your absence is my bane

The rain has filled all the basins
All the rivers are above their bank
It’s the sun that sweetens the raisins
And for missing you Atlantis sank

Shine on me all the day
Let me sweeten in the sun
Stay, stay and never go away
From now till I am done

ginga commented on A grape

06-17-2009

A glorious ode to a grape. The pleading for the sun to come out is heartfelt. Like a lover's quarrel between the sun and the grape's yearning for it to sweeten their bod. Wonderfully crafted! Ginga

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
