Analysis of i will surely miss you...
a sad, sweet voice
from a payphone:
"don't call me anymore!"
a thousand poems sighed.
i will surely miss you
deeply, beautifully. what
to do next?
i did not know.
after awhile
lunging for a second life,
my shaking legs move...
and window the sky. "i will
surely miss you...
i will not cry"
©anna laurencio /2013
poem is part metaphor,
part imagination of the author salted with the power of art .
this engaging poem is a gate opening to all who write, read or teach
poetry to find themselves broadened and enlarge imagination
no matter what the circumstances.
