Last Breath Poem by Doris Cornago

You will never know what comes up during an emergency. Sometimes, the people who we think are most reliable fail us during out point of need, while an insignificant person (in our eyes) could just be waiting in the wings to shield and comfort us. The message of the poem is to stop the foolishness of waiting and move on. An eagle is better than a cuckoo who does not really know what he wants. This poem is inspired by a young poet Crimson Love and his poem 'A Distant Love'. Expertness or skillfulness at making poems - or 'making love' - is nurtured by depth of heart and honesty of emotions. This is my observation of both young poets and aged poets.
