You and I

Just musings

You and I    by Sami S. Khalil 

                        

To tarry

once more

or jump into

the fray,

into the shadows

of the fallen

before us.

Imperilments, feints

ahead

upended, interfused.

Of wracks and ruins

a vast prairie

of grand surmises

clenches the jeweled dreams,

daybreak-kissed.

You and I

then rise to meet

the trilling birds

alight the cerulean skies.

We wend our ways

and float blithely.

A brilliant write, full of intricate writing that makes the meaning and read that much better! I especially loved the last few lines, and I really adored this poem.

Wheee...Thank you so much Colacat for this amazing review and kind self. I'm so glad you visited and enjoyed...

a very romantic write, Sami...which also could go in an opposite direction...the political "fray,"
"grand surmises" of what we might wish for...and the "daybreak-kissed" with hope
that we wake to blue skies and a rising up.

Whoa! So true and well said sir Jacob. It can go either way. Choices are hard to make for some and easy for others. We have to live with the consequences. I don't know if you agree with the statement that in love and war there are no rules. Thank you so much and be safe and keep the creativity coming.

Interesting the protagonist is unsure whether or not to get involved and yet seemingly is yearning for the perfect morning to awaken with someone special. Some lovely phrases.

A comparison of love's battle in his heart with the battlefields of fallen soldiers. He is contemplating the dawn of a new day and a new reality. Thank you kindly sir John McFayden. You are awesome...
