Void Feelings Poem by Khairul Ahsan

Void Feelings

Rating: 5.0


A child clutches at her father's finger,
Her hands held firmly by her mother.
A woman wants her man's ardent arms
Wrap her in strength and loving charms.
A man seeks in his woman's bosom
A space for love, peace and inspiration.

These little bonds of love and affection
Keep us tied in complete satisfaction.
But alas! One day we may come to know
That we've to loosen the clasp and let go
Our loved ones as they grow up and find
A nest for themselves and leave us behind.

A child clutches at her father's finger, Her hands held firmly by her mother. The eternal lament of loving parents- - - we raise them to be good responsible adults and then we sob when they leave the nest! ! ! We humans are contrary creatures! ! Well-written poem here. Enjoyed the read very much.

' - Yes, indeed, and that's the 'eternal lament of loving parents'. Much inspired by your reading and appreciating, dear poet.
