Aubade Poem by Reshma Ramesh

Aubade

Rating: 5.0


Train chuffing, prayer in the mosque, milkman's calling,
Albarado playing, slumberous moans, water running, ,
Newspaper tumbling, , eggs frying, phones ringing,
Crows cawing, hymns chanting, leaves rustling,
These are the beautiful sounds of early morning.

Glasses clinking, breaking news, women praying,
Birds chirping, old lady sweeping, joggers mumbling,
Alarms chiming, toilets flushing, babies wailing,
Peaceful, melancholy, matinal silence
These are the beautiful sounds of early morning

Delightful to read with all the picturesque scenes involving sounds and sights. Provides a lot of room for more fill-ins of one’s own life situation in comparison.

Most descrpitive of the world awakening couched in well written poetic prose The essential difference between poetry and prose is meter The acid test is to read your words aloudd if the flow like melted Ghee You are doing fine If not re -edit and rewrite until they do/Try to keep your line lenghts equal.May I suggest you obtain a good source book which explains the different meters used in poetry Lewis turcos book of forms or miller Williams patterns of poetry both available on amazon often cheaply as used copies I am an old fashioned formalist so my opinions are somewhat prejudiced Your command of english is excellent but often sentences are structired differently in english to your own languagr
