V. Deepa Poet Diminished Hexaverse

Me-The Confined Bird

A bird sings.. mawkish
Sings and dances smooth
She... by doing so 
has naturally
forgotten her world.

Soars high upwards
aims to touch moon
but sadly can't..
falls back in nest

the bird is
unable 
to achieve

her dreams..
being

"leashed".

Aditi Mishra May 23, 2020 at 5:36 PM This is sadly beautiful Deepa...the innocent desires of a bird that wishes to fly free but cannot and is compelled to sing melodies amid her pain. Lovely portrayal! Congratulations on your win :) V. Deepa May 24, 2020 at 2:53 AM Thankyou very much for your kind words and continuous reviews and support.:-)Yes it's really sad to envision birds or any human being confined.I am happy that you understood the portrayal:-) Take care.

Darlene De Beaulieu May 16, 2020 at 1:18 PM Hello V.Deepa, I do not like it when I see a bird in a cage. I prefer to see them fly freer. They belong in the trees. Enjoy your day my friend. Darlene De Beaulieu May 17, 2020 at 12:38 PM Hello V. Oh- thank you for explaining it to me.I see your point of view. Have a nice day my friend. V. Deepa May 17, 2020 at 2:20 AM Hi Ma'am. Yes even I don't like birds nor any human being confined.Each one has to enjoy his/her freedom. This poem is in point of few girls who are undergoing lot of restrictions in their home or society.The bird is personified to a girl here. Have a great day.:-)
