*DAPHNE JOHN: My unforgettable, charming and angelic schoolmate, who is also and will always be my FIRST and EVERLASTING LOVE. Hearts who truly love never part...never...not in this worldly life nor the Hereafter. Daphne...O! Do not envy.
*FORNIA: A short term for the city of California in the USA.
*VENUS: The brightest object in our solar system is the planet Venus. It is named after the mythological Greece's most beautiful woman. To know more read the Grecian myths and legends especially about our planets, stars and zodiac signs.
*HELEN: Helen of Troy deemed to be the most beautiful woman of her time as described by Homer in his poems "The Illiad" and "The Odyssey".
I know that there are many beautiful and virtuous women in this world but to me it will always be my "Forever Spring" Daphne John.
This poem is in fact an inspired rejoinder to THE PALE WINGED POETESS' most recent poem in which she writes beautiful verses but her words do not even have the spirituality or other worldliness outlook that can make her sit quietly and ponder on the ethereal bonds made between two halves of a soul by The God Almighty Who rules the world and even the universe. My request to her is not to measure or even try to make a simile or a metaphor of the immense and boundless as well as depthless love The Creator Almighty has blessed upon the two of us: DAPHNE AND ME. I wish she does not mistake my poem and comes up with another rejoinder because no rejoinder can work. No one can make me forget my beloved and divine Daphne. May The God Almighty Allah bless her wherever she is in His infinite Kingdom.
