I have to be the first
Until then...
My Loud poetic whispers are here after being at Livejournal
You say you love rain,but you open your umbrella when it rains.You say that you love the sun,but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines.You say that you love the wind,but you close your windows when wind blows.This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too.
The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.—W.M. Lewis
My thoughts have to be ribboned with words anew
So it won’t shock, The heart of you!
My words, Have to be braded
Into conformity still
Given a shape, That wouldn’t shake the cell!
Sentences have to eternally bow
For reasons that I may not totally comprehend now!
I...
A creature Of shades
Glimmer That fades
And letters Bounded
To the brim!
Have to sing yet, That eternal hymn
And all Seem to be so endlessly old
With all the myths told
Achievements, yet to be hold!
Be hold me still
As I strive to excel
And subdue This flesh of mine
Far from being divine
But tries To climb
To echo
Its ribboned thoughts
In braded words
And softly uttered rewards!

As usual a great one when it comes to poetry technique and use of word power but when it comes to the meaning of the poem, it is too harsh as being the last it doesn’t necessarily mean the least. In many cases the last becomes the best, he or she could arrive the last moment and was placed at the highest position, it is not the mistake of him that he saw me the last but when he saw me he gave me what I deserve.
ReplyDeletewhy do you think it is harsh!? Why don't you see it as an acknowledgment of one's worth?
DeleteThe last here doesn't mean that which has been seen or found last! No...
The key word of understanding this poem is "afterthought". It is actually what triggered this whole poem - in a way.
The last here means the last to be thought about! The poem says that the speaker has to be the 1st and main thought on someone's mind and not mere an afterthought or a last choice when all other choices have been exhausted!
Thank you
