Delta

by Karla   Sep 20, 2012


Delta

she sat for some minutes,
annihilated by the falling leaves:
waiting to be a fugitive,
finding wounds in the white daffodils,
forging a second sun, feeling humiliated
by the kois in the pond.

and as she divided the wind
between her teeth,
the rivers met the oceans
again.

    This poem was very calming and yet I couldn't help but feel sorrow and frustration. I admired the nature tones within and the visual display of a woman sitting near a pond of koi fish was very soothing. I adore poems with a deep passion intertwined. I also felt like the woman is trying to take on the weight of the world and needing to take a break from the struggles. The creative look of this piece is what hooked me along with the many paths I took while reading this piece... Very nice!!

    Hey, Karla. Your title brilliantly matches your content. I won't lie and say, I grasp the meaning... But I think you have related the paths of life to one end through a delta... I don't know, but the overall impression this gave me was Fascinating.
