The words are getting heavy
With my pent-up breaths
The stanzas are bathing in tears
I fail to find the right words
After so many search
Tell me,
How shall I write a poem?
Someone has imprisoned them
In the dark cells
My language have been lost in dungeon
Tell me
How shall I rescue them?
Give a key in my hand
Let them be freed
To the warm sunshine
Let them get mad in the wine of dawn
Let them spread far and wide
Let my heart's emotions
Flow in poetry
Like a dancing river.
Yeah! Birth of a poem, it is so painful. Nice poem, Bharati.
Although you fail to find the right word at present still we hope and feel that you will get it soon under the emotion of heart searching the beauty painted by God. You have rightly expressed heart's emotion. Thank you very much for sharing this excellent poem...10
A nice expression of human sentiments that sometimes paralyze our thoughts.
Let my heart's emotions flow through poetry Like a dancing river--Beautiful line
When our emotions are iprisoned words cannot be fluent. To get them freed is our pray.Excellent poe
" After so many search" i'd say " After so much searching" or " After so many searches" . :) " Let them get mad in the wine of dawn" wine or wind? Do you drink wine at daybreak in India? ! well, this time you DID get your words out. congratulations. bri ;)
So lovely Bharati...this has happened to many and can happen to any....I am attracted and amazed by your way of expression....Give a key in my hand Let them be freed To the warm sunshine Let them get mad in the wine of dawn Let them spread far and wide.....so truly said...enjoyable very much...kudos
I relate to this, Bharati—when it feels a poem is impending but no poem comes, when a day deserves a poem, but no poem comes. You can catch the drift of this in my poem “Semi-Retired in Early Spring” when one did come. I like “let them get mad at the wine of dawn”—GREAT line! I relate it to the drunkenness I describe in my Heart-Song that begins “Because of what you have done...” At this point in my life, I wait till inspiration comes. -Glen
