Unspoken Petals

Unspoken Petals

A Poem by Nisreen

Through and through all along
Words could finally speak
Of those never ending petals
Fallen beyond the lines
Finally within alluring times
Tides of bliss came through
Angelic hues of translucent blue
Tonight a tomorrow gives in
Walls that came tumbling down
Yet no one heard them
A theme of red with delicate throws
A butterfly flew by
Telling this tale of times
When a smile filled the room
Surrendering to the idea of you
Crushed turning red to blue
Waiting for the words
Unspoken petals felt 
Closing down the sighs
Of every night

Well, you did ask...

It's possible that the part of the story that would have given a reader context never made it to the page, Because, when you say "Through and through all along," that brings up the question: "All along what?

Then you say, "Words could finally speak." But they don't. And, speak about what? You don't say.

You say, "A butterfly flew by Telling this tale of times When a smile filled the room" I have to ask: "This tale? This is a tale about someone's smile somehow filling an unknown room? But then you drop that, too.

Looking at your work, in general, it would seem that you're focused on impressing the reader with a spray of pretty words that seem to have been generated by an online poetry generator.

It kind of reminds me of Bunthorn's, Oh, Hollow! Hollow! Hollow!

What time the poet hath hymned

The writhing maid, lithe-limbed,

Quivering on amaranthine asphodel,

How can he paint her woes,

Knowing, as well he knows,

That all can be set right with calomel?


When from the poet's plinth

The amorous colocynth

Yearns for the aloe, faint with rapturous thrills,

How can he hymn their throes

Knowing, as well he knows,

That they are only uncompounded pills?

Is it, and can it be,

Nature hath this decree,

Nothing poetic in the world shall dwell?

Or that in all her works

Something poetic lurks,

Even in colocynth and calomel?

I cannot tell.

Like nature nothing really is stable always changing from the subtle to more abstract tones.

Thanks 🙏 Andrew
I like the idea of unspoken petal as unspoken words tumbling down. Slightly romantic and visually panoramic.
Well done Miss Nisreen...

You are welcome Nisreen....
Such a beautiful poem that floats slowly downward until the blue moments seem to take over. However...just a bit sun will add enough yellow to that blue to create a wonderful shade of green and green is the color of new life so everything can be fresh again. I really enjoyed how you wrote this my friend. Tugged on my emotions.
