Poetic-surge Poetry Appreciation Contest (In Pictures)

in poetryappreciation •  7 years ago 

This is my entry for the Poetic-surge Poetry Appreciation Contest by @ajremy. See the contest here.

Using descriptive pictures and the power of words, I will be interpreting/analysing the poem "Within me" which was written by @eliasjay

Stanza One

Alt Text

The first stanza talks about a moment each one of us have had to experience. We were/are young and free. But like we all also later find out; freedom is at a cost.

Stanza Two

Friends are good, but a man's first friend must be himself

Man has to pass through life alone. Some things may appear simple for others, but for him, it could be tough. However, he must keep searching, he must not give up.

Stanza Three

Self discovery is the greatest discovery

Many times, what we sailed hundreds of kilometres to find are right under our nose. To find such treasures, we must look inward. When that discovery is made, sleep becomes sweet.

In deed, the power to change your life, lies right there within you.
