Washing Sorrow Comments

Hi Ankita - Nicely constructed poem with good flow and consistent rhyme. The first five verses are a great CRY FOR HELP & HEALING. For your life to be healed and your 'flesh' your heart and your soul. We all cry for our lack of fulfilment in Life and Love and Liberty - where does the answer lie? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? The final three verses attempt to give an answer to the dilemma posed in verses one to five. (Verse six) - Before reconstruction there has to be destruction: 'Breaking down' 'No sense' 'No reality' ' No truth'. (Verse seven) 'Wash your hands' 'Look in the mirror' 'Get out the book! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !) . (Verse eight) Some positivism 'Ask for help' - always a good thing when you are in despair - 'face MISERY - don't turn back - don't run away' - that is never a god idea. The last line is not the solution but it is the beginning of the solution. IN THE END - YOU HAVE TO BE YOU. The Good Book says we have to have a high esteem of ourselves and we have to be involved in ou own SALVATION. Ankita - take a good look at yourself and you will see: Ability - Beauty - Character - Desire - Energy - Faith and so on right up to Zeal. You have infinite potential Angel we all love you and are there for you - you only have to ask. Love you in Poetry - JOHN.
