Blend Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Blend

Rating: 4.0


(dedicated to Ric S. Bastasa, a great poet at poemhunter)

can we surely separate
our feeling of anger and mercy
when we care a naughty kid?

can we positively distinguish
our emotion of desperate and hope
when we face a difficult job?

can we confidently severalize
our obsession of anguish and joyful
when we involve with an enigmatic fate?

all unite all converge
coalesce into oneness
all flow all flush

all unify all merge
integrate into oneness
all stream all surge

all combine all consolidate
syncretize into oneness
all current all circulate

(inspired by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No.1, Winter Daydreams)

...and so it is with life in reality.We all live faced with decisions we must make knowing our choice(s) will definitely be consequencial. What are the odds? How do we make these choices? It's often difficult taking our positions in situations as these but we often do knowing all roads lead in different directions. I love this piece of poetry. It tells all in itself. I appreciate this one too.

AHMAD, YOU REALIZE YOU HAVE TO COMPILE ALL YOUR INSIGHTFUL, BALANCING OF LIFE COMPARISONS INTO A SELF-HELP BOOK, DON'T YOU? MOST OF YOUR POEMS ARE 'SAVERS' FOR THAT REASON. SO INSPIRATIONAL WITHOUT LABELING OR PLACING BLAME. YOU EXAMINE AND PROJECT AND THE REST IS UP TO US. THANK YOU. YOU ARE A GENIUS. WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A CAMERA ON YOU FOR A DAY OR MORE. YOU ARE A STUDY IN THE MAKING! MY BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOURS, CAROL
