Eileen Manassian



I Knew You Yesterday
 
I knew you yesterday
I witnessed your sheereen smile
 
I knew you yesterday
Graciously you served me tea and kindness
 
I knew you yesterday
Introduced to your poetic prose and verse
 
I knew you yesterday
As a bright pink rose, heart exposing soul
 
Today, I know your kindness that seeps within
For I have drank from the cup of your poetry
Of your dreams, inspiration given
In verse and rhyme
I have tasted loves desire so divine
You have weaved the heart around the olive tree
Of passions growth and windy breeze
Erotic loves built on bricks of stone
Like an open bloom you kiss the bees
A thousand men would cross the seas
If only to see the words you weave
In verse and rhyme
Romantic poetry from depths below
Would make any heart weep and cry
Let not any brave man die
Before reading a verse from thee

Note:The word sheereen in Persian means 'sweet,'
