Plunge Into Pluto Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Plunge Into Pluto

Rating: 5.0


a lagoon of shimmering atmosphere
from above waterfall, come near
a parcel from storm bringer
just embellish wayfarer

a savannah of milky way
from home, miles away
recurring curly waves
just dance my friends

a desert of aurora borealis
from inner circles release
genuine air remembrance
just touch longing hearts

Holst’s Planets
burst our spirits out
Mozart’s Don Giovanni
move our bravery forward

Wagner’s Die Walküre
step our originality up
Falla’s El Amor Brujo
call our beloved ones in

Ravel’s Tzigane
fly our dreams high
Sibelius’ Karelia Suite
run our endurance through

O Mother Theresa of India!
inspire our future days!
O father universe!
strengthen us!

O Jang Geum of Korea!
decorate our hearts!
O mother earth!
motivate us!

O Kartini of Indonesia!
beautify our love!
O children art!
unite us!

O ye colleagues of brooding rhymes!
greet and welcome stout pioneers!
O ye comrades of soaring lines!
breathe new life into sparks!

O ye heroes of solitary shadows!
rejuvenate quivering hopes!
O ye guards of lonely souls!
beguile trembling feelings!

O ye brothers of reckless action!
revitalize forgotten liberation!
O ye sisters of restless motion!
revivify unaware generation!

(dedicated to my poet friend at poemhunter, Christina Phan)

The only problem I have with this is the title. The title must, in my view, bear directly on the body of the poem. It must give direct reference to the message of that poem. Here, it does no such thing. Other than that, I found this piece to be beautifully written. GW62

A poem with a nice, inspiring idea. Yes, we require role models to follow in our life. Role models are required for certain value systems. Values are getting personified through such role models. We require values in our life. Look around us and we can find values and virtures practically in everything.
