More than usual weather

More than usual weather

A Poem by Dinesh Sairam
"

05-05-2012, around 6:30pm, a silly encounter

"
Suddenly, more than usual, the breeze
blows sweepingly out of its peace,
and in that momentary unrest
fills the atmosphere with dust

and with the heat of summer, which create
a kind of weather most would hate,
but how I love it as it were,
for silliness, when people are

startled, and run about afraid,
looking for a place to hide!

Author's Note

Dinesh Sairam
If you hadn't noticed yet, the whole poem is a single sentence!

Actually, I didn't think of this as I posted it. I read in a book that Robert Frost's Sonnet 'She is as in a field a silken tent' was a 140-syllabled sentence. I got curious and went over my works to see if one was like that, and what do you know, this one was!

Well, after I read your note, I went and re-read and yes, this is one sentence! haha, that's very interesting, the way you mentioned the winds, and the weather similar here as well, dust storms flinging things away, pretty violent actually, but I really love stormy weather. The ending's really nice, I enjoyed the whole poem, the words wonderfully conveying the weather, well done.

So true!
There are so many times, when that dusty wind blows, and everybody in the house runs to close the balcony doors, i wonder, why? It's wind! It's so lively! So amazing!
A beautifully written single sentence poem.

I did not notice the pem as a single sentence until you pointed it out. Poetry does not have to fit the form of prose, and many poets write without any punctuation at all. You did a good job.

Fine use of a phrase over the verses, technically very well done, but also from its content a excellent poem, full of lyrical beauty, well observed, good literature.
