The Cryptic Script Poem by Valsa George

The Cryptic Script

Rating: 5.0


The wind over the dead leaves
rustles-
"A-l-l
i-zz zz-z
n-a-u-g-h-t"

The billows
howl-
"NONE
waits
for
NONE
So
izzZZzz
TIME"

The Old
bemoans-
"I
am
a-lone."

Reciting the saga of pain
that never dies
The sea of life
flows
on and on.............

The wind rustling - naught, the billows howling - time, the old bemoaning - alone- -The sea of life / flows / on and on! Simply Admirable! !

Reciting the saga of pain provokes thought. This poem talks about blowing of wind on dry leaves and we feel that again greenness will reappear. This poem is very brilliant and amazing poem definitely...10
