Moons of autumn, Sarah...

   28 comments

Star eyes closed, sunglasses
Face hidden in black cloth
Moons of autumn
Sarah..

Spring combing
Looking for lovers
Smell the flowers in the garden
Through purdah
Do you feel?
Do not reduce
Sarah..

Looking infinity
Fly in the sky
Garden birds Voice
 Through purdah
 Do you feel?
Do not reduce
Sarah..

    behind this cloud
    the soaring bird sees all things
    fly in circles

    Behind the purdah, a bird flies in circles; choices revolve therein. _m

    I think anything that is a free choice is good... there are so many things that tie us down and clip our wings.

    What a lovely image and thought provoking poem....it seems perhaps Sarah needs a bit of release from the purdah....I think many women live behind a purdah of their own or society's making.
