Notes About The Poem

 

- the Air Vibrated -

Most people were born with love and concern 
              ~ the real world is more like a nightmare ~
                       Listening To My Monday Blues
                                         ~
              we need to turn adversity into opportunity
                                    CHANGE
                      ~ before the sun goes down ~


                             
                                ~ * * * * * * ~



                   Some have tattoos, others have scars
                          Everyone has the memories
                    Five years after several coordinated 
              terrorist acts shaken Norway on 22 July 2011
       The bereaved and survivors still have horrific memories
                and miss their loved ones who lost their lives
                
               ... One human
                          ...
                              ... The air vibrated

Lynn Marie Date: 8/22/2016 1:26:00 AM Out of unspeakable violence comes newfound awareness and action so those whom you write so poignantly of did not die in vain. Your poem keeps the "real victims" of this tragedy in the forefront where they belong, so we never forget. Beautifully composed, your heart glows with love as a wonderful call to action.:-) The title is chilling...but devastatingly true. bundles of blessings, lynn Login to Reply Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 8/22/2016 2:13:00 AM - A very sad event in Norwegian history, many young people were simply "slaughtered" - Many thanks for the pleasant visit and your comments, Lynn :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Bl Devnath Date: 8/14/2016 12:22:00 PM i think Anita Moorjani and you both are great philosophers. It's true that until and unless true beauty is felt inner, there can be no outer beauty feeling for any one in this world. Life is precious highly only when universal feeling's felt. If any feeling's matched with such a feeling that's universal then only that's universal surely. Otherwise wasting precious life. A great poem, my favorite too, my lovely lovely friend. A great seven.
