Sky

Hello! This is a poem I wrote a long time ago. I've had it saved as a draft post for a while, but for some reason never published it. Hopefully you'll all enjoy this post!

From the clouds
Emerge a sun
Lighting our day again
Once again life is fun, 
We can go out and play

But in one tiny area
A cloud remains
We're hoping, 
It won't burst
Hoping, 
It won't rain

But deep down inside
We all know
The cloud won't hold
That'll show

When tears roll out
Of the clouds in the sky
The world becomes sad
The world becomes shy

The cloud needs to control
It needs to hold
To keep us sunny
Away from the cold

-Poem Fanatic

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place. 

Coromandel Fishers by Sarojini Naidu

Hello! For this post I will be exploring another poem written by Sarojini Naidu, called "Coromandel Fishers". This poem can be taken as an allegory, for although it speaks to fishermen, it's metaphoric value speaks to the nation, and can be considered a wakening call for the people of our country. When I wrote about "In the Bazaars of Hyderabad", I mentioned that Sarojini Naidu was one of our freedom fighters, and believed greatly in the Swadeshi movement. Naidu reflects her passion for India in this poem.
