I am a great lover of nature
Of its myriad forms, its hues and shades
I have preserved,
In the folderof my cognitive files
Superscribed with my heart's emotional bytes
(Among other things)
Quite a good number of
Sunsets and sunrises
Strung together in the timeline of my life
They supply me the much needed oxygen
When I feel drained
And asphyxiated
During my run up to safety
battling for my own space
In the charming valley of
A pristine and fabulous nature
You have a true appreciation of nature's beauty, whose gifts are all free to those who know how to look. I like the metaphors, 'much needed oxygen', 'the timeline of my life'. Well put.
superscribe is 'new to me': write or print (an inscription) at the top of or on the outside of a document. etc. lines 4 & 5 my favorites. i 'know' bites more than i know bytes: a byte considered as a unit of memory size i hope you always find your space comfortable! bri (: to MyPoemList MySpace fills a tiny gap between sanity and insanity.
Your comments and the reviews often increase my knowledge and also make value addition to my writings. Thanks a lot.
This is a very beautiful poem. I fully endorse this feeling of freedom. Each individual must have his or her share of space to do what they like. otherwise one can feel the want of oxygen. So well thought of and so effectively worded. Truly, enjoyed reading this poem, Rajnish ji.
Thank you so much, Geeta ji, for appreciating this poem and posting a very positive review. Your words give credence to my point of view- 'Each individual must have his or her share of space to do what they like'. Thanks again.
a wonderful poem of how nature's wondrous beauty both inspires and gives us the strength to soldier on? .........well written Rajnish.
Thank you so much, Tom, for your kind words of appreciation about this poem.
I too need my own space and this poem confirms it. 'Emotional bytes'-an original image from computers; 'the timeline of my life'-another memorable image. It all adds up to a top-drawer free verse poem.
