Twin Triplets. No.7. Moments, Orphan Poem by Valsa George

Twin Triplets. No.7. Moments, Orphan

Rating: 5.0


MOMENTS

They flash into our midst in a twinkle
To seize them in our hold, as we scrabble,
They glide into eternity like a trickle

ORPHAN

Man and woman in unity begot
Soon in discord forgot
Now a castaway sans either's support

The triplet regarding Moments and the one regarding Orphan are each in its own way creditable! - The line They glide into eternity like a trickle in the 1st triplet is so attractive-! In the 2nd triplet every orphan is made- a castaway sans either's support is an apt and true statement! ! Lovely too! !

Interesting and insightful and a little too realistic perhaps. A fine write.

I think there is a correlation between Moments and Orphan: time. Moments of life spent with the ones we love give meaning to life, and the sad reality of an orphan living without his/her parents. A well-composed poem!

discord is root cause of orphans. moments are just moments-they vanish, leaving memories behind. Poet has brought out these stark realities in these twin triplets. The poem has used simple words; a very enjoyable poem. liked it immensely.
