The Show

The Show

A Poem by Bala Gorthi

This head looks up above to shoot
To The Savior a warm salute
This is how my respect I show
Unique are ways I take to bow

I lay flat and stamp a tight kiss
That kiss is an exotic bliss
The land accepts it, this I know
Unique are ways I take to bow

The flag shines high, a mark of pride
Its charming beauty equals bride
The head hand salute brings my glow
Unique are ways I take to bow

Child's innocence brings a big smile
And my thin lips stretch a good mile
Showers of kisses make my show
Unique are ways I take to bow

Another very well written experimental piece.

You are pushing the boundaries of your poetic knowledge with each passing poem. I had to familiarise myself with the format of a Kyrielle.

It is a very well executed piece. One small note: your second line has nine syllables.....sa-vi-or is a three syllable word.

Otherwise, a neatly designed and formulated poem. Nicely done, Bala.

A interesting poem my friend.
"Child's innocence brings a big smile
And my thin lips stretch a good mile
Showers of kisses make my show
Unique are ways I take to bow"
I did like the above ending. A child smile and kind kisses. A perfect life. Thank you Bala for sharing the excellent poetry.
