it is kite, it is kite flying in the sky
sowing sound shrill sound long and high
do you know what is it, looks like a huge kite?
in angry seems same to a Chinese change'e to fight.
'it is not a kite' someone says
it is a fighter plane others say in gays
war war it is war to kill the man
so many lives will go to hell O the man!
hearing this my heart is trembling and trembling
panic in panic in it is gasping and quaking
is it not the war-world three is commencing?
yes yes no doubt, it is in the offing.
in angry seems same to a Chinese change'e to fight. .....angry or anger? and what is change'e? it is a fighter plane others say in gays...............does gays here mean jest or jokes? ? it doesn't sound correct to use gays here, but maybe it is a cultural language difference (English vernacular****?) . **** here is the definition which fits my meaning of vernacular, above: (thanks, Google!) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ver·nac·u·lar vərˈnakyələr/ noun noun: vernacular; noun: the vernacular 1. the language or dialect spoken by the ordinary people in a particular country or region. he wrote in the vernacular to reach a larger audience synonyms: language, dialect, regional language, regionalisms, patois, parlance; idiom, slang, jargon; informal lingo, -speak, -ese the preppy vernacular of Orange County - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - so many lives will go to hell O the man! ................do you mean lives will be ruined? and the use of O is not familiar to me, though the use of oh! is. maybe, again, it is something i've just not been exposed to. ;) :) panic in panic in............could this be panicking panicking? ****** - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ****** pan·ic1 ˈpanik/ verb gerund or present participle: panicking****** feel or cause to feel panic. the crowd panicked and stampeded for the exit synonyms: be alarmed, be scared, be nervous, be afraid, take fright, be agitated, be hysterical, lose one's nerve, get overwrought, get worked up; informal flap, get in a flap, lose one's cool, get into a tizzy, freak out, get in a stew, have kittens there's no need to panic frighten, alarm, scare, unnerve; informal throw into a tizzy, freak out talk of love panicked her - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ...war-world three.... here in u.s. i think most would say world war three. we abbreviate 'world war one' and 'world was two.............WW1 and WW2. ============================================== overall i like the poem. as for your 'new' effort at rhyming, i say you have done well for a 'beginner', especially for one writing in a 'second language'! i try to use what i refer to as perfect rhymes, like your use of sky/high, and kite/fight in stanza one. i believe rhymes in VERY OLD poems were often like your says/gays, which, to me, are not 'perfect rhymes' in that they do not have the 'exact same sound at the end of the two words'....though they LOOK ALIKE. not all americans, who have grown up speaking english, pronounce words the same way, and the dictionary gives more than one pronunciation for many words! ! ! ! i don't know if some people consider man/man a rhyme or not. maybe. there may be two words, both ENDING in '-man', which i would say rhyme 'perfectly', but i can't think of two right now. personally, i don't call any of your stanza four rhymes 'perfect rhymes', but they are ok, i'd say. these**, however, i do call 'perfect rhymes'. [i don't know if anyone else on PH uses my term 'perfect rhyme', or if they define it the same way as i do] ** quaking/waking/baking/forsaking/taking commencing/fencing - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nurul, to me, rhyming is an extra attraction for me to many poems, but, as i believe i said in a message to you, i've read rhyming poems i did NOT LIKE and non-rhyming poems i LIKED VERY MUCH. i think a poem suffers if a poet tries 'too hard' to use rhymes and fails to make the poem understandable, or make it flow nicely. all of a poem's rhymes may be 'perfect', BUT the poem is NOT so good BECAUSE of 'trying too hard' to rhyme! bri :) wow! Tajudeen, below, said a mouthful! not sure i understand too well, however. AND little or no rhyming! ! ! :)
hello, dear poet, when P B Shelley said, poetry may be defined as the expression of imaginations and passions, and Hazlitt said, Poetry is the language of imaginations and passions, or William Wordsworth affirmed poesy the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings recollected in tranquility'... they had not insisted us to follow rhymes and meters or even the schools of improvements English literature has undergone refinements since the 10th century to my knowledge. to you, my humble emotional expression, upon reading those lines, felt to you ' a mouthful'..hahah. how can you measure the depth of one's acumen, thoughts or imaginations. I had to jot a few humble lines to express what i felt upon reading it, that's what I did. I could remain silent, but, if not attempted to bring to your attention, you might still be using unpleasant expressions to anyone who would try to express their feelings/views. i know, you did not mean much, but blindly followed your inner self in writing such a line, but its time, we all can learn and earn from a platform like PH, where, fortunately, 'the immortal minds of the past' and present engage themselves sensibly towards propagating a universal law of mutual respect, love and appreciation; despite of limitations and other factors. I request, all who happen to read this, as i can't insist, to get benefited from each words, as words only has the power to be swords and seeds at the same time. Let us hope another germination; read ' Ode to the west wind'..of the revolutionary master; P B Shelley. Enjoy some verses of wordsworth or Robert frost... dive deep into the unfathomable, but enticing seas of absolute wisdom, nature and unbounded delights., (another 'mouthful'...smile.
All the bards on this sweet lil planet have the same heart, fortunately, and so they keep the lives smeared with hope and delights for ever more. Your misgivings expressed in these lines reminds me of the ocean of dispondency that william wordsworth expressed in ' Resolution and Independence' / The Leach Gatherer', where the poet shares the common destiny of the beauty making mass; the poets, and even gives the examples of the baby poet Chatterton and the farmer poet, Scottish, Robert Burns. Let us harness, roll up our sleeves, if we can motivate and empower warriors in the battle fileds, we can sure pacify the remaining, rotten-hearted megalomaniacs of this earth. Sit not silent, sharpen your pen and start sending fiercing arrows to explode those brains of mean manipulations; the so called poilitical power craving crooks. Thank you, your lines made me express this much. God bless. Take care. Join the stride. Regards. Tajudeen Shah
Its a kite that flying.... The anger make metal kite able to float But lets we release the dove to free To end something before started Shut the hate down from the sky, let the peace back to the ground
thanks...mere a formal thanks would be less to greet you....i think though. instead a metal kite....dove to be released....what an image you have drawn....very significant..... your image has a touch of pathos...... have nice time.
