graphic and wonderful look at the down trodden...are we all so lucky not to live behind that door as so many orphans do...it makes a merry xmas a wailing song... thoughtful for you to write the wrongs in life...regards and a joyful xmas
Jailbird spends time in sorrow and sings, All I see is darkness No stars, no moon in my sky. Wonderful presentation. While the bird becomes free sings the essence of freedom and happiness. Beautiful poem really shared on.
This poem has many 'gems' of lines. It is a sparking epitome of good poetry. I feel very proud to read the poem with its rich kaleidoscope of diverse images and haunting lines.10/10
A heartrending write. Very impressive. I loved the visual here - My mind is a nocturnal street Where dark memories wander - and very sorrowful here - Whom a ‘mother' begot And then conveniently forgot! - I can't imagine a mother doing this.
Here, no bird sings What I hear are the rumblings of my stomach......amazing write...............................like it
Very touching indeed and so poignantly crafted really touches my heart.....Valsa.......amazing write
My yesterdays locked, And my tomorrows blocked ... Set free my captive spirit A powerful plea of the locked soul.is equally powerfully rendered.
The wailing of a jailbird a great poem that narrates the suffering meted out on circumstances that was totally against the life itself and it is a heart felt emotional poem that created wonderfully realistic it seems. I likes it very much.
Release me from these shackles Lift the darkness off my soul Break open these binding chains Strip down this iron door Set free my captive spirit Let me see another sunrise! .......so touching and meaningful. A great philosophical poem is amazingly delineated. A life on hope for another sunrise... brilliantly put. Five stars.
