 "Take a popular song off the radio and rewrite it as a poem in your own words." 

____________________________________

Dear heart of mine

Why cannot you be strong

The one for whom you so pine

Thinks that your affection is wrong.


In any life, the rising and falling

sunshine, you cannot hold

Who can bind the free colours,

beauty too you cannot hold

Why do you keep trying for long...


Simply learn to be grateful

For the time, with you they stay,

Union of life and death is an illusion

Scatter this foolish dream away.

For none dies, with you, along...


Dear heart of mine

Why cannot you be strong

The one for whom you so pine

Thinks that your affection is wrong.

My favourite song - I listen to it when I am happy or sad, despite the deep melancholy of the song, Rafi's voice is pure magic.
