Low Hanging Fruit

Low Hanging Fruit      by Sami Khalil

Thoughts on failure and success in relationships.

An English Sonnet...

There is deafness in the air that lingers

Calling out things left between us unsaid

Paying no mind to me, pointing fingers

Had I gone to great lengths, failing instead.

 

Failure needs neither speech nor ears to hear

Only dreamscape statues to behold thus

What a stranger who bounces back from fear

Whistle and walk like a hero, nonplus.

 

Hold your breath through the canvas of the night

Confident the briny tears shall avail

I ponder words that bind some beings tight

Leaving indentations of sketchy trail.

 

There is no pleasure in low hanging fruit

Fondly praised are the wins in earned pursuit.

What a well written piece. The cadence is fantastic, and it helps move us through your emotions. I’m currently in a situation that reminds me of this, so I find it really relatable. Great work.

Hi Sami...yes, it is me Lisa...now in Spain...
I have been away for ages due to broken bones and a new knee replacement... My inspiration and muse deserted me but now it seems to be back.
I am delighted to find you online and to read to read you Sonnet... Excellent and oh so visual.
I enjoyed the many metaphors throughout... fabulous...

Hi Sami how are you and family. Keep me posted man from mars. Few of you are my mentors in writing

[Sami Khalil]

Hi Linda! All is well, are well. Thank you for asking. My honor and pleasure to have known you; a woman from Venus, an artist from mother Earth.

commercial opportunities sponsored by a reality outcome. many attempts from the personal vault. the determining value is it reproduced or genuine? in any case loyal spirits of the past dance forever.

[Sami Khalil]

Amazing knowledge and insight you possess; I love it. So true and well articulated. Thank you kindly for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us.

Low-hanging fruit might be easy to grab, but it doesn't mean it's the sweetest or the ripest!

Lovely work. Thank you for sharing!

[Sami Khalil]

I agree wholeheartedly dear poet and friend; you have said the truth. Thank you kindly for sharing.

[Papaya]

There's no such thing as success unless you've worked for it and earned it. Wise words, Sami.
Life is happier when we've earned our rewards.

[Sami Khalil]

I totally agree with you about the subject. To earn noble things through noble ways brings us confidence, security, worth, sacrifice for us and others, noble goals, shared goals, good outcomes, countless benefits. We value things more, achievements more, relationships more.
Comes free or cheap, it goes as it comes. Thank you kindly for sharing.

Life becomes rather dull and boring when things come too easy 💛
