    Die to reborn and other poems.




    Tiger's eyes

    The tiger, escaped from the zoo
    Wondering streets under the falling snow
    The miracle in middle of the summer, actually two
    Not every day you meet the beast, crossing the road

    He stopped before car, staring at me
    Magnificent, fur decorated with a snowflakes
    For few minutes of tete-a-tete we understood
    Connected on the higher level, swapping places

    Forgetting barrier of the misjudgement
    Exchanged the positions , his eyes merged mine
    Experience out of body, It was me this tiger
    Caged,angry, finally escaping , free

    And nature inaugural snow, guest surprising summer
    Kept collapsing on the ground, engaging flowers in guessing game
    Is it a winter came, we opened the petals in wrong time or miracle
    The sign from heaven maybe not for them, but for me to accept

    by Margaret Gudkov


    Die to reborn

    Die to reborn as petal on the daisy
    You touching gently, casting away to wind
    He loves me, he loves me not
    I'll be the last , saying he loves you , yes indeed

    Jumping for joy , twisting and turning
    No thought given to the petal, crushed under dancing feet
    Glad to be of service to beloved, dying again I will reborn
    Helping to build the solid foundation unknowingly to her

    She lost me, crying waterfalls of sorrows
    Laying for months in the lethargic absence
    Not wanting to get up, eating like a mouse
    Raising the wall of silent resignation

    Her eyes are sparkling with lovely bubbles now
    The sadness gone , melting into blue fog
    I am here near my wonderful beloved, trembling
    Came back to earth to benefact, she must of felt the angel's presence

    by Margaret Gudkov


    The dream of love

    The dream of love
    Opened door for me to enter
    Divine aroma veiled senses into foggy spell
    Hesitated I , shaken by the view , sipping through
    Slightly ajar ingress, knees gave it up , collapsing body

    Spreading on the floor, I closed my eyes
    Afraid when reopen will not chance upon heavenly vision
    Mirage invaded to tease already fooled mind into the game
    With the mistrust unglued eyes from doubtful seal
    Door was still open, inviting to come in

    Tiptoed at my own risk
    Almost tripping on the huge boulder in the middle
    I stepped ahead, reading the Shakespeare's sonnets
    Hanging on the trees, forgetting 16 century is over
    That is a modern love dream without writing poetry to lady
    Without picking strategically dropped kerchief, pressing it to lips
    No serenading under balcony or asking in politeness to hold hand
    The modern times have no place for gentle courtship
    Love moved on the net, turning upside down all the norms
    Remembering i went too far , stopped reading
    Waking up and grinning , what a weird dream it was
