Written for: Carpe Diem #1315 – The Scheme of Things (based on Omar Khayyan)
Ah Love ! could thou and I with Fate conspire
To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire,
Would not we shatter it to bits – and then
Re-mould it nearer to the Heart’s Desire !
© Omar Khayyam (Tr. FitzGerald)
desire
your heart beats
with mine
© Chèvrefeuille (experimental haiku)
Here is my attempt:
If two hearts were one
beating in perfect harmony
we could be no closer
