Stretch Across The Face
A free verse poem
---------------------------------------------
A dirt on the porcelain platter
Stretch across the face
With the eye keen on it
While the mind won't stray
A lion piggy backing a deer
And The prey so happy
Had he know beforehand
The predator don't play
The eye lid flutter
Straining to kiss the nose
Ignoring the brain's warning
He can see but only hazily
Raven took a likening for the peacock
Admiring its flashy feather
Oh the raven seems to forget
That his black is also shiny
For man don't care
But the heart and soul do
If the heart loves not
The sky won't be blue
