I Miss You So Much!

I miss you much, so much! Could hardly bring to mind,
When was it that a carefree boy he once to woods you took,
When was it that he picked you cherries at a price of smile,
Ripe cherry dress – same as in past it so befits, adorns you.
Oh it may be that time puts out what's good, one likes,
So that its price should rise, like price of dreams unproved.
Oh I can see our steps like hare’s marks that follow path,
Wish you remembered, Eli, how we called it 'day of woods'.
Now time that passed made me again crave for that day.
Should I behold you I might cry, I miss you much, so much!

About this poem:
Love again - there's no escape from it! Another translation of our Georgian poet. This must have been his first love - as it seems from the poem, but we all could relate, the most cherished and poignant memories are with the first love - no other love could compare!

Love lost is definitely a painful thing. I remember talking with a priest and his vision of heaven wasn't described like I have read it in my bible, a 1,500 mile cube. He said that heaven is God, it is not a place, but a person. That is how it feels for me when I am with someone who loves me.angel angel2

Very poignant indeed my dear lady. I am feeling the sentiment still for my first which lasted for 9 years..Father of my first child..What a memory that was. Once you love someone, it will hold always a place in your heart. That is for sure.

thanks so much for the read.

Your friend,

Yes, my dear friends, these are memories kept in deep recesses of our mind, secured by password that no one knows, something we take out of memory box from time to time to contemplate in solitude. I remember a friend of mine telling me in secret that her husband before marrying her, once freshly out of school had a sweetheart from the nearby village to whom he got engaged and then left for Siberia, where a huge railway project was in progress, to earn some money for the wedding, but there he met my friend and broke the engagement to marry my friend. Years went by, his former sweetheart got married and had family of her own, then at a comparatively young age she died. He cherishes the memory of his first love for he keeps visiting her grave every time he happens to be in the vicinity of her village. Thank you very much for your heartfelt comments. hug

Thank you, my friends, for appreciation. It is nothing compared to how it sounds in the original. Wish I were its author myself. Writing poetry is a matter of talent and inspiration, worldly and particular knowledge, and life experience, and what not. Writing poetry is so unpredictable: no one knows when inspiration is coming. Even if it takes long, it is due to come some time. In the meantime there is so much to do, so much to read, translate, and, what's important, enjoy reading. This is to your Muse, dear poets! wine
