Bereft

Bereft: Then pen on... Note: The first line is part of a line I left Johanna on one of her poems and she liked it a lot. It gave me the inspiration to write this one...

 

 

 

Bereft/………………By Sami Khalil

Bereft: Pen on…

The Poem:

 

Bereft…Then pen on till the next storms of life

Heralding wind, rain, hail, sand upon terrains

Pen till ink spills out with blood, become lovers

Across somber passages, brushstroke of pains.

 

From there, earth rises to meet heavenly lights

Betwixt the lands of tremor, seas of tranquility

As soul’s canvases spell out answers to quandaries

Poet’s texts answer genesis of addled humanity.

 

Pen on till starry dust fills emptiness of dark rooms

Tracing queued walls of the heart… edgeless spaces

Embrace aching words carrying rippling worlds within

For when all crumbles, hearts compose new places.

The depth of thought in this work is legendary sami, every line delves into the reader's subconscious for a sense of relativity and I can't help but feel a sense of familiarity through your words. Bravo, my friend.

[Emma Ruth]

Wow, your use of language is wonderful in this piece; very beautifully written. I particularly liked the expression; 'brushstroke of pains' - it reminds me how art is so often a theraputic outlet for both creator and reader. Thank you for sharing :)

Wow. So true and well observed. I can't thank you enough for the time and effort. Many rich blessings...:)................

It is a saying in hindi... "Jahaan na pahunche ravi, wahaan pahunche kavi" meaning a poet's imagination can frequent places where the Sun hadn't even gone and this poem proves it. It takes us to all those places poet could find inspiration form. Phenomenol. Thanks for sharing.

This is an inspirational appreciation of the art of poetry itself. Despite the fact that what we write is overlooked by the thoughtless society and it seems unable to change the world,dwelling on that is just going to bring you down. Putting your pen to work is what retains hope and perseverance. This might not have been what you intended to communicate but that's what I got from it. This is a must-read for all poets. In fact,I'll send this link to my friends on writerscafe,facebook and on twitter. Splendid,solid and classic work. Glad to have met you here.

[Sami Khalil]

Wow. I did intend that and you have read it marvelously. So bright is your mind and pen. Thank you for all you say and do. Pen on to greatness...:).................
