Admire

Rating: 5.0


Well may we admire an admiral,
but the word is not from 'admire' at all;
not from Latin ad meaning at and mirari, to wonder,
but from Arabic amir-al-bahr, lord of the sea.

A feeble story can be redeemed,
raised higher,
by a setting that pleases
or an actor you admire.

The word admire always amazes us. This seems to be fabulous or this can be redeemed through feeble story but this has deeper insight to encourage. An interesting poem is brilliantly penned.
