Four-Line Poems Poem by Ferdinand L Quintos

1
If you can not sleep and dream,
look up and watch the stars gleam,
do not be nightmare to others
dreaming of a thing that matters.

2
I am not rich, people can see,
but I know the Lord shepherds me,
He knows everything that I want
and helps me have them when I can't.

3
I have been sad, they called me blue,
I was coward, was called yellow,
I shook my self, I became green,
they now say I have hopeful mien.

4
I have now become so weightless,
I have realized this no less,
Your thoughts I can no more displace
to find, in your mind, a space.

5
The lizard walks on your ceiling,
not for a moment envy it,
God destined you for a calling,
one that your must never forfeit.

6
In Milky Way I heard you are now there,
you can visit me, I am just somewhere,
to you, unlike on Earth, I am quite near,
maybe just about a million light year.

6
I watched a bright shooting star
span the velvet firmament,
the glow was spectacular
it eased my cares for a moment.

7
A gloomy veil covers my soul,
afar, bells peal a mournful toll.
Near death I lie in extreme pain,
Hail, lips that lie, reap now your gain.


8
Love is not love in the mind kept,
in words unsaid, hidden in crypt.
Love is not love said in words aloud,
sans act to prove worthiness avowed.

9
My heart, hard it may try to, never can
admit all the waters of an ocean
or all the stars of a galaxy,
but it holds love for you 'til eternity.

10

So sorry, I do not know how to dance,
learn it before, I never had the chance,
if it will make mother, from death, return,
I will be happy and, by all means, learn.

11
Sweet scent of life they hid, by me not to be found,
to God be the glory, I found out I was a hound;
into water I was tossed to to deny me my luck,
but thank you so much, O my sweet Lord, I am a duck.

12
Look not at me with those dreamy eyes
For, in their warmth, I will melt like ice,
smile not at me with those sweet lips
for my heartbeat goes wild and skips.

13
Come and give me a tight squeeze
rub on me your sweet scent of cheese,
then, go and suffuse the soft breeze,
in your warm arms let me unfreeze.

14
For your dear love I so much crave,
but care for me you never gave,
take me, I will be your slave,
if not, then I will seek my grave.

15
Come, beloved, let us bask
under the stars after dusk,
let them fuse inseparably
our love much people envy.

16
I was down-cast, the said I was blue,
I was coward, the called me yellow,
I shook myself, I became green,
I became hopeful, people now say.
