Alas! Alas! ! ! To behold the truth. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Beautiful quote in the Poet's Note, but I find your poem equally beautiful in its image of that tiny drop of dew. Your image is lingering in my mind and that is a true test of a poem. 10++++++++++++
Aha wow wow this is truly one of your masterpieces! ! ! You wrote it so creatively reflectively with a great poetic mind of tassawur(Urdu) . The short lived nature of beauty. Both me and my mom love admiring dewdrops so I admired your great poem sir. Kudos. Pleez do add your thoughts/ comment under my newest poem too, titled, mirage surprise.
A profound piece of work with a meaningful message. No matter how brief our moment in this life if we make a significant thing, we will be long remembered. A great poem worthy of 10++++ and to my Poem List.
Excellent overvaluation on life- A life so short lived, Yet how long lasting Remains the beautiful image It leaves behind! ////// yes it leaves behind beautiful images excellent always SIR
A dew drop hangs in a graceful and courageous way as it hangs on to a leaf creating a sparkle on a dull day! Beautiful write!
Yes, 'courageous' is another right attribute of a tiny dew drop that I missed, but you've rightly mentioned. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on my poem, @Hazel Durham.
Thanks a lot for your comment, dear poet EKL.
