My Laughing Side โ€“ Libera Animam Meam

Nafis Light

Light
being pulled out,
This is insane!
Why?
Because there won’t be anything left.
Really?
What is there...really?
What do you know...really?
Why are you saying...sorry?
Why are you feeling...worry?
Is this right?
Might is in what is above;
Strength is in the will of the virtuous;
Then...comfort?
Love...solace?
Freedom...the surface?
Surface of what?
A Lake?
A Pool?
The Sea?
The Ocean?
The Mirror?
The Reflection?
Slowly...the answer;
Finally...it doesn’t take forever.
What is?
This...questioning;
Questioning the self;
Questioning the vision;
What matters...you know;
What is important...you do know;
It is not doubt;
It is not confusion;
When in doubt...remember;
Age Quod Agis,
What do you do regularly?
What do you daily?
My Poetic Side?
What Else?
Never block the flow;
Never stop this infinite flow of river,
If it is blood...so it be;
Blood that symbolizes pain;
If it is black blood...let it be;
Black Blood that symbolizes despair and things in vain;
People are here...people of My Poetic Side even;
Did they cover their eyes from seeing?
Did they freeze their mind from reading?
Lives...intertwining;
It’s all a part of living;
Realizing;
Laughing;
Crying;
Winning;
Living;
Let it all be in the pool;
Red and black...blue and gray;
Pink and yellow...brown and gold;
Walk the path;
Live the life;
Sight...Soar;
Love...Live...Roar;
Give and Gain...Run and Much Much More.

    WOW J44 ~ This POEM sure was a Classic Marathon ! Over 60 lines and invoking the LATIN in the TITLE and the middle ! We both went to good Schools so we feel LATIN always gives a POEM CLASS !
    LIBERA ANIMAM MEAM ~ SAVE MY LIFE ! With respect to the first half of the Poem this is an effective title ! Then in the midle (line 35 ?) we get the second LATIN MANTRA ~ AGE QUOD AGIS ~ WHAT DO YOU DO ? This is an apt description of the second half of the Poem !
    ANALYSIS ~ WE have to ~ Know reality ~ Break the surface ~ Question ~ Examine our actions ~ Make MPS work for US ! ~ Do what we do ~ Realise - Laugh - Cry - Win - Keep it all in the pool ~ Walk the path ~ Love - Live - Soar - Roar ~ Give - Gain - Run & MUCH MUCH MORE !
    Great POEM it made us examine our own ROLE in MPS ! Basically we are ENCOURAGERS to all especially NEW MEMBERS ! Thanks for sharing !

    Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
    Love Angela & Brian ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

      Thanks a lot.
      I didn't know how much of an impact the poem would give.
      I was wondering why Latin Language would be used (even though a little) and why My Poetic Side is mentioned in the poem.

      That was the second time I used that language.
      I just know that that is how the poem has to be.

      Your comment made me wonder about that...and the Latin Language which I did try to study (although mostly words and phrases) before.
      Initially I thought of just keeping it to myself.

      I once lost a friend because she knew that I know a few languages besides English...but no matter what, I denied knowing them even though the language slipped out several times.
      It's understandable regarding that time because I wasn't ready.

      GOOD MORNING JOKER # It was a full Poem so we both felt it needed a full Comment ! Your comment on LANGUAGES is interesting ! The BRITISH have a love hate relationship with Foreign Languages and most BRITS avoid using the bit they know for fear of sounding silly or being unable to understand if they reply in Italian or whatever. Angela & I are both fluent in Spanish and have qualifications in French - Italian - German and a working knowledge of Portuguese. Pronunciation is the KEY to using ALL these Languages. I fell hopelessly in Love with ANGELA but she is from a Formal Spanish Family (MAMA is English) so I had to arrange to meet Don Pedro De La Plata to formally request Angelas Hand in Marriage ! I am a Classical Guitarist and am familiar with Andalucia where PAPA comes from ! Fortunately may accent is good ~ so when I made my request in my best Castillian Spanish ~ PAPA said ~ SI. MAMA wanted Angela to marry an English Gentleman & PAPA a Caballero so I satisfied them BOTH ! Your poem promted me to (later) post a SONNET in praise of MPS please check when it appears !

      Blessings & Peace & Joy to YOU & YOURS
      Love BRIAN & ANGELA ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก
