I T Was One of Those Mornings

Seismic waves shook the ground under our feet
On that passionate morning we could not meet
         Little did I understand then
         I would soon be crestfallen
Completely a lonely soul in the meaningless street
Beaten broken bewildered battered and bereaved


The other day when you poured me pink and warm
Passion pulsar profuse in grace and exquisite charm
           From your purple front door
           To my restless slight shore
My tree was in dance as its leaves you gently stirred
The south wind was back together with its pretty bird

Your poem was delightful so glad that you had a good day after “It Was One Of Those Mornings” that really wasn’t awesome.. Congratulations on your placement..Sara..I am sure that living through a very bad earth quake would be one of the worst days ever..We had a very small earthquake here a few years back but nothing to compare to what I see on TV..

Thank you.... My poems are not necessarily my personal experience.... Only about eight months ago, we who live in Kolkata, had been in a shock of earthquake of about Richter 5to6..... Life gives us both good and bad days, whether we are moneyed people or beggars.... As humble poets I am sensitive to certain perceptions that seek expression...

A morning of tragedy ... and a morning of passion. You expressed yourself really beautifully here. The connection between the tree and the bird was a nice touch, I thought ... well done, Probir. I enjoyed your poem collage.
