O bluish heaven! <br />where I put my love <br />when you waves <br />my fragile fate <br /> <br />O yellowish horizon! <br />where I put my legs <br />when you smashes <br />my anguished dream <br /> <br />O whiter water! <br />sail me away <br />to humble palm <br />on vivid island <br /> <br />O softer wind! <br />fly me away <br />to calm cloud <br />on secret stream <br /> <br />O funny penguin! <br />go to your nest <br />I really need <br />your advice <br /> <br />O flashy dolphin! <br />go to your palace <br />I really follow <br />your vow <br /> <br />some pearls <br />wait for beginners <br />in turbulent time <br />I never let you die <br /> <br />some diamonds <br />need to be explored <br />on cracking deck <br />I never leave you <br /> <br />(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Anthony Foster)<br /><br />Ahmad Shiddiqi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-rhyme-of-a-mariner/
