Notes About The Poem

Swarm Sigh

You arrived on a splendid December day, as I recall. I relived when we came home; I let out a large sigh. I put my elbows on the overhang facing a mountain wall. I sighed again vowed to be with you till you rise to the sky. I sighed as we had to migrate to find a brighter future. However, you are scared to chime out of your safety zone. I sigh when you left our house and rejoin with your ruder. My frequent sighs are for the sake of my child's shone. At the point when you chose to wed, I hopped for bliss. You acted accurately in picking a high erudite young lady. Recall your cracked tone telling me you had a boy you relish. "I'm relocating for my child," you sighed as I moved away. If time was a ritual and you were doled of a gold spoon. I would be careless if I denied your grace to the moon. Some emotions, such as rain, are as rare as a typhoon. Candor and anxiety of others are expected when done. Father, you may not attempt to strive or be dispersed. You are an idealist; that hurts me to witness your sigh. Halting and the peak of the emotion are vividly defined. From the heart, I'm yet motivated by facts and nigh. I sigh as I ponder on the past with suffering. When I'm in front of my parents grave, I cry. I sigh again as I reckon of individuals in my living. My sigh was a combination of relief and ecstasy.

The raw natural imagery you use here, is so well balanced with the raw natural emotions of your poem Lasaad, the recurring theme of the sigh, meaning so many different things, comes together so well in your final ambivalent line, a great contender for the contest, cheers David

Thank you very much, David. I'm happy that you enjoyed it; indeed, all the imagery is natural because every verse is accurate, and those sighs are actual. After leaving my dearest son to go for his road trip from the east coast to the west coast, I wrote this poem.
