Whistle of life

Whistle of life

A Poem by Gaurav
"

"your life is with you"

"
Singing in its feminine prosperity
the life whistles in my ear
says - "you sing too child"...

I bow at music
and kiss rosy notes
that emancipate me...

I float on wind-like patterns
that her whistles set in
motion on the sky..

I wish to be happy
but i find bliss to see
tears and ecstasy both...

The life of infinite creatures
so burdened yet so pleasant
look at me in the eye and
sing -
"I am with you"

Thank you Emily for your positive feedback.
This is very original & unexpected, the way you describe a basic feeling about life . . . that it can be musical. The 2nd stanza is one of the best I've read lately. It's so imaginative & conveys enthusiasm when song sets a person free. I also like the contrast of tears & ecstasy, as life is a tapestry of song that conveys both sadness & joy. I can feel the lightness & lilting rhythm of your message.

Thankyou so much for appreciating the work. It matters a lot.
A very nice sentiment. Life is like a song we all must sing. I would consider dropping some of the articles to smooth the flow e.g.' Singing in its feminine prosperity the life whistles in my ear' would read better as 'Singing in its feminine prosperity, life whistles in my ear' and in the stanza
I wish to be happy
but i find bliss to see
tears and ecstasy both...
happy and bliss are essentially the same emotion so it doesn't sound quite right here, perhaps bliss is not quite the right word here.
Other than that, a good write. Keep going
