My Utter Cry Poem by Amitava Sur

My Utter Cry

Rating: 5.0


My utter cry
===============
After the end of the bustling day
The sun is setting leaving all it’s rays.
I am now, sketching a faded sky
With the dying sun and my utter cry.

Fearing the winter
When all green leaves will die.
An unending winter-
With no sign of life.

The more we are nearing to our end
The more we repent the unfulfillment.
Reminding of our wasting days -
Cherishing nothing in those summers and springs.

Through stumbling blocks and hesitations
So many longings and dreams had gone waste.

This life will never come again
Hot blood will not flow any more -
Through my arteries and the veins.

I am now, sketching a faded sky
With the dying sun and my utter cry.

Very good, reminded me of DYLAN THOMAS, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.... I understand he wrote it to his father. Read mine – Eternal grief – Adeline

I can picture you sitting on shore, easel standing in front of you as you sketch and then paint the fading sky, uttering a cry of dismay at it's wanton demise. Seeing all the longings and dreams being buried on a final flame of sunset, knowing that life will never be repeated and a desperate cry escapes you lips. This is the painting your words have painted into my mind - thank you for this masterpiece, Amitava. RoseAnn

As long as you have a breath, you must keep hope alive. Hope is what helps us face life and all that it throws at us. It is our strength. Always imagine that something wonderful is waiting just around the corner. If not today, there's always tomorrow. Never give up.

Beautiful poem. Sir, there is always a sun rise after the sun set. During sun set the sky is sure to look faded. Beautiful way you have sketched faded sky. Now by using few more stroke of brushes the same sky can be made to look brighter too. Loved the way you have presented this poem.
