The bells are ringing

This is the first time I try  to make a poem.  I hope I am not too far away.

 

The bells are ringing 

calling closed doors  to  open

 the child does not want milk

tears  won't dry 

The bells are ringing 

Many of them are afraid  

Nights are long

The  cry of that child is so loud

They want survival, who cares?

The bells are ringing 

hungry birds fly helplessly 

in the cloudy sky

The space is not enough

Weak wings stop to flutter

The bells are ringing

Tears are still dropping

But their shouts still linger

In that cloudy sky

The widows sing silently and

The bells are ringing

  • It's because you are a good person. I am really happy to hear that. It's my first attempt on poems. I have never tried them before. I thought in reflecting our suffering and our deteriorating condition. Look at the body of our Arabic and Islamic world. Thank you, Shadow!

  • Sayangnya, itu yakin Fitma. Our Arabic world is full of fire and destruction. You look at any one of us, I mean any Arab country, and you will witness that with the exception of some countries though these countries have their own war. The crying of that child is just a symbol for many thousand ones. I hope this will soon come to an end.  Thanks, Fitma for your comment!

  • Wow.. You can make poem now? Your poem describing sadness, afraid like people live in war situation. But i dont know what in your mind when you make it

  • Cam on viethung! I am trying to give a description of our negative world. I mean our Arabic nation. Wars are in every part of it. Its body is torn and scattered among the other nations. the terrorists, the extremists, pain, destruction, name it whatever. The ringing of the bells can refer to the sound of the guns or jet fighters. I guess you know the rest of the poem. Thanks, Viethung for your nice comment!
