Flee To Sea Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi
Flee To Sea
decorate with sweetened voice
and humble lovely imagery
all dripping in tangles blue
cast up by a nymph melody
by which they eagerly sailed to express
velvet waters are circled and sway
peacefully upon glowing reefs
merely a very special haven
one continuous shimmering breeds
along the curled rip of harmony
however strange it may feel
across this melodrama sea
(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Juan Carlos Abeti)
Dear Siddiqui, I liked this poem for its exquisite imagery expressed in short and sweet melodies which can match that of an ocean with that of a nymph. Your experince with the sea is picking up not only corals may be pearls as well. Thanks for asking my comments -A-10- from me -Rajkumar
The poet must have spent most of his time in watching the sea side for writing the life story of the sea in all his tiny but graceful poems on seas.
You do seem to choose your words as if choosing a rare sea-plant. Very soothing.
Enchanting imagery and theme. Deep water too! 10 Karin Anderson
