LIFE FALL

Post by shakespear »

Life-fall

The orange sun’s fallen behind that line
Behind distant horizon, losing its shine
The darkness will reign soon, stretch its black limbs
Control the world, deploy fear on the rims
The fire will turn faint, a cold wind will blow
We approach the life-fall, our steps are slow
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I close my eyes, stretch my hands in air
Try to imagine your eyes, your lips, your hair
Dream touching your face, your features and cheeks
Smell your warm breath and fly to the high peaks
Hug your vision and find I hug just space
Then grief pervades my soul, my heart, my face
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Your wide eyes seem so clear in the moonlight
Seem as silver pools… is it my first sight?
Did I see them before, as calm as now
To your eyes’ beauty we all must bow
Spring grants the world new buds, flowers and scent
Why does it last short as if it is lent?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
All sweet things in the nature don’t last long
We are like scattered words in a swan-song
A dead’s got nothing but soil in his fist
So sing the sad song before death-harvest
A sea-nymph will play her eternal tune
And in night, I draw your face on the moon
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Oh sweet days last long I’ll meet my mistress
Tell the spring not to end and try one kiss
You won’t leave, you won’t know any season
And you’ll love the moon, the silent horizon
Embrace the trees and birds, sing in whisper
“Let’s live our joy, it’s our last nice supper”
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

despite the strain of sadness and melncoly....i liked it..
for me ,i feel that this poem tells the story of our life,,
we interest the beauty and sweetness of our life,,but this enjoiment is very much acompied by the fear of loosing and sebaration,,,,
u have given the solution at the end,,lets live the current moment and never think about what is going to happen.....as it may never come......
okey,that what i felt as i read ur poem,shakespeare....
well done , friend...u know very much my view about all ur thoughts and poems...keep it up

ok that is good say but if we want to express our thoughts and feeling clearly we have to adjust our speech and decorate it to be convincing and as its said " right needs mouths" that means needs correct, strong, rhetorical words.....
i want just show my point of view
thnx a lot 4 ur lovely reply

hello
woooooooooooow
yes u r right
actions in addition to mouths and wt happened in our countries as u said, is a reaction agianst unjustice and severeness from governments towards the poor citizens and people.i agree with u friends and u've said the truth and we need to change our bad thoughts , ideas and every things about the reign in our countries. rulers must know how to treat ppl , how to give them freedom. freedom isnot just words , its actions and practice. why we can b like foreign countries like france, britain, usa, and others , we, the arabs, were the most applying justice in the world , we teach world justice and now we r at the back of procession.
ok thnx
c u and have nice moments
