Hopes and Dreams I piled together
Then with my hands I lit the pyre
Will they like Phoenix rise from the ashes??
Only Love can say, Love alone has the answer.
– Shail Mohan (2009)

hopes and dreams dont die do they.. ?
lovely !
Me: Don’t they sometimes?? 🙂 Thanks Hitch.
When fate made me light the pyre
to set my dreams and hopes afire
will it confine me to the land of despair
or will love help me to regain my empire.
Shail, you know what I am going to ask you to do!!! 🙂
Me: Well said Govind. ,,, and do you know what I am going to ask you to do?? Find one for me please!! 😆
Oh so beautiful!! Vivid and charming!!
Me: Thanks Pal! 🙂
A brief poem on the power of love. Well written, Shail.
Me: Thank you Bob!
They will. 🙂
Me: Short and to the point. Thank you Solilo!
Very lovely! I hope they will rise.
Me: Thanks Basanta. I hope so too! 🙂
“”Only Love can say, Love alone has the answer””
So, let me not utter a single word.( Remembering Red bricks!!!)
Me: Wise man, I must say. 😆
Hopes and dreams can only rise
So said the wise
Love will not disappoint
Phoenix will rise.
Me: Thank you IHM. That is lovely! 🙂
Love will prevail….
Me: Yes, I believe that too. BTW Unnichetta, are we all as a family incurable romantics at heart?? 🙂
Hopes and dreams will always rise. Another little gem from you! And thank you so much for your tweet 😀
Me: Thanks Dreamer and you are welcome; that was a hilarious post! 😆
BTW what else would someone with the name Dreamer say?? 🙂 Hopes and dreams will always rise! 🙂
that was so nicely written shail….one question – aren’t u putting a bit too much responsibility on love though ? 🙂
Me: I don’t think so Arch. 🙂 Love holds the answer; it is just a statement about Love. Only Love knows, only Love can say. What Love does is entirely up to Love.
Love is immortal like the ash itself and when hopes and dreams burn in concert love should come out, as the phoenix. I feel the pyre is as abstract as the burning love itself, and isn’t dreams what life is made of.Loved the poem.
Me: Thank you Sasichetta. I liked what you have written here. Isn’t that a dreamer himself speaking?? 🙂 And yes, love is immortal.
yes they will for love has to prevail.
Beautiful,shail!
Me: Yeah love has too… ! 🙂 Thanks Deeps.
Small and beautiful… 🙂
Me: Thanks Vivek! 🙂
Only Love can say, Love alone has the answer. Lovely lines!
Love nurtures hope and dreams. Love will prevail.
Me: Thanks Deependra. I agree: love if it is love, has to prevail. 🙂
‘Only Love can say, Love alone has the answer.’ – Absolutely..
Me: Love alone..! 🙂
Only Love has answer. 🙂 they sure will rise and with much more intensity color the world that you live in.
Me: Thanks Tikuli. “color the world you live in” Loved that! 🙂
