An interesting attempt at the set form and a reminder just how difficult it can be to both rhyme and make sense. The line 'No wave can crush a stone enclosed with bog.' is most interesting, as it seems to be saying, to paraphrase, carve your name on a stone, encase it in mucky ground and no wave will break it. A stone 'that have no stain' would soon pick a few up from a bog!

Beautifully meaningful poem. Like a poem written by a forty-year-old who has been writing since he was twelve. Continue, Omar!

very precious poem with a great lesson behind.whatever you achieve / wherever you did it / whatever your excuses are / there is only one thing to make of great benefit./ that, if you are interested to find, you probably, if lucky, find in the last two couplets. thanks omar for the kind invitation.

Just a mirror Poet has placed in front of us. Simply not a poem, perhaps conscience has been painted by words with right and calculated diction. Bravo. Only in 9, if poet's appearance proves the mastery, then reader can imagine the shinning brightness of such a talent in long run. Awaiting for next. Warm regards, 10+ pranab

Omar, you did a great job on writing your first sonnet. You might want to edit it a little closer. Keep up the good work. Lynn
