shattered
diamond’s glass of
falling pieces
soul of love torn to shreds
longing
for joy’s reunion
of passion’s nearness
shattered
finger’s link of
broken circle
death’s tomb of widowhood
Please tell me what you think

This powerful few lines show me a turmoil inside with the desperate outlook for new light.
Loss and loneliness break through with each line and touch the reader's heart immediatly.
Very expressive, deep and wonderful poem Frans and it certainly leave me in thoughts for a while. Thanks! Ulla xx -
powerful!
My favorite kinds of poems are the ones that say so little, yet mean so much. You've really mastered this kind of writing! As an engaged woman, I can feel some deep emotion toward this. The words have made me appreciate what I have at the moment. Wonderful! Absolutly powerful! -

I keep coming back to this piece
for its very brevity amazes me, so much implied, such a big life story - actually stories, for there is more than one character within. Great economy. Like a crystal puzzle. Super.
