A Death And A Transformation Poem by Valsa George

A Death And A Transformation

Rating: 4.7


For centuries I waited to be born
May be at the ripe time my seed was sown
But in a hostile soil, I smelt treason
It baffled my ken of simple reason

Yester night I died a martyr’s death
Tonight I got buried on the heath
Tomorrow, breaking all manacles that bind
I shall liberate myself from Death’s sinister grind,

Myself for safety, into the opposite sex bound
To live thereon, a princely life unbound

Hi Valsa, Rachel Nichols advised that I check out your poetry. I've just finished reading a dozen or so, To me, it's clear that you have the gift. I really liked the humming bird one, and this one too since it leaves one with the feeling that you've grasped the truth of the eternalness of Soul, hence embrace the concept of reincarnation thus the transformation. Loved it. If so moved check out some of my poems - they too embrace spiritual concepts which I hold as truths. One poem, The Lonesome Road might be a good starting point. I've added you to my favorite poets list. Cheers!

change of mind in society is most essential to stop the murder of a society/ Crime unto the half world the female world is more than any other crime, Why discrimination Why? why? with the abundance of poets few writes. I thanks for this you penned for the cause, the cause for the generations yet to come/thank you with a request please do write
