Terry's Poetry Tryings. Sea Wolf

in poetry •  7 years ago 





The water rushes - foam, splashes, and erosion!

Although it's better than a mud... stagnation.

An explosion of powder cellar, not corrosion!

Life - battle... nobody will get salvation.



I knew those who were crazier than me -

Phoenix envies their final bright flame!

And those who fled... destroyed by a sea...

Their names are covered with shame.



Songs of sirens and storms caress my ears!

Shark fin reminds how it will end...

But no more fears, thanks to past years.

Don't cry for me, my abandoned homeland...



Sincerely, Terry Craft.

To seek the flame of fire
To seek the heart's desire,
Consumed by inner strife
Yet triumph over life

Wonderful poem!

I kiss the sand and raise dust
I fall as yet another
A turbulence through my heart shall burst
Returning me to the land of my father

Story of a Brave sailor, who is also a patriot.
I thought it short and sweet.
Love your writing style.😍

it took me to read it 2 times to somehow understand the poem. it is so deep, i love this writing of yours Sir terry! :)

I do not know... most likely this poem needs to be re-read several times, not because it has deep thoughts, but because I do not know English

LOL

If it's really fair, it seems to me that something is missing in it. But I decided to publish this poem for the sake of criticism...

It's really nice Sir. it still leaves me thinking of the rootedness of the poem- but i feel the sorrow of it.

hahah sir, This is one of my biggest concerns when i write english
I go from Spanish to English and then from English to Spanish
to try not to say some madness or incoherent thing.
But in poems this can even give a touch of mystery, abstraction, something like that.
The old saying is that poets have something crazy. :)

PD: By the way, it is a beautiful poem. A song to those intense hearts.

^ ^

Thank!

True poetry should leave much to the imagination and leave the listener thinking. You're on the right track my good sire.

Leave the English aspect
So far u and i can understand it

this is a beautiful work, the author has a talent, reading it you start to think about different things, and it's very good. Thanks you

That poem is beautiful!

Good

This is amazing poetry. I love my homeland and I'm guilty coz I abandoned for many years.

Hello my name is Herman I'm from Venezuela, I liked your publication so much today I want to ask you to collaborate with my publications, the situation is that my country is very complicated, and together with my wife we are expecting a baby, we both have a job but we only earn $ 2 a month, I earn a lot more money publishing publications in Steemit than doing 8 hours a day and 6 days a week, the situation in Venezuela does not give to be able to have a baby, but I will strive every day so that my daughter is the happiest and has everything in the life, I do not ask you to pay me a dollar, but if you help give me miles to my publication to achieve savings for when my baby is born, it is a girl and it is almost 5 months shortly before it is born.

This sounds personal. I have a feeling it's about you.

Lovely. I also had to read it a couple of times to get a meaning from it.

Did you say English was not your first language? If so you are much better than most native speakers.

I hope so )

I love some good sea imagery! I also love your line: "Songs of sirens and storms caress my ears!" Very nicely done.
