Handkerchief

While watching sunset
Drowning in sea
Every breath of fresh ear
Sun reflections
In blue sea
Collars
Sink inside me
Awakening hope
Waves as handkerchief
In distance

Is that beloved waving ?
Is it my mother?
Or brother?
Or sister?

I am feeling as passing
Image
Caught
In immortal circle of mortal pain

I sow so many handkerchief in distance
Each one soaked with tears
Promised of waiting
But wind of time took them away
Stacked in branches
They live they're own life
Whistling wind blow them
Roll them
Twist them in ear as dancing ballerina
Makes them remember laughter of past
With tears of present
In wind of dreams
Past endeavours
They cry as neglected children
Waiting to be picked up
And find they're way
To be kept close to chest
As treasure of heart
For someone to cherish

Each handkerchief has it's own dreams
Some to dress a wound
Some to hold the candlelight
Burning on heart as Faith
Some dream
To grow bigger on mainmast
Withstanding storm
To stand proud waving - against time
While life destiny that our nature shapes
In this or that room
Waiting
With handkerchief

Wow! So beautiful.
Because English is not your first language,
you bring to your poems a way of thinking, foreign to us who think in English.
The Irish language is so beautifully lyrical, and full of descriptive terms, I could listen all day, to the old fluent men here,
struggle with the limited vocabulary of English, in a effort to express themselves.

No need for you to practice Whisper.
How you express yourself is what makes your poems so beautiful to me.

This one reminds me a Spanish song about a

woman waving bye-bye to her loved one

sailing away, and he never came back.wine wine

hi whisper,
your poem reminded me of an apartment i used to rent out of an old mansion ... the home had a 'widow's walk.' i remember ascending the spiral staircase leading up to it... the space felt similar to much of what you so poignantly describe and express
