The Wagon of Love

© Written by Sihem Cherif She said: "Be my Daniel, taken in a fury
Enchanted by the colors of my dress
Tell me all about the love story
Straightening the rope from its backwardness"
Be My Danielle,
I will be your 'Anna', yielding to the vows of togetherness
He said: "Do be my Anna, leaving her cozy home,
the child's smile and all the glory of her Dome
I will be your Vronsky
No shame in tears when love surges."

She said: "Be my George abducting his throne
Making of me a queen of his heart
yearning to sip coffee with me

in a mere flat balcony
I will be your 'Wallis'
and put up with all the agony...

Enchanting those fragrant loves stories
in the book of life
Let's go to the sea, to look for
' the old man and his whale'
we shall thaw in the din of the churches
and ask 'for whom the bell tolls'?
The brimmed love king became
' the English patient'
saying 'farewell to arms' and armas
and ' the sun also rises' to say
goodbye to the pandemic
cherish the 'love in the time of cholera.'
