POE-A-TREE HOP: TEARS

Hey another Poe-A-Tree Hop!
Well here we are going again just hopping all over the world.  As you may know the last hop we were looking at the rainbows. Saw some mighty pretty ones two.  But to have a rainbow you need a little rain. So this time, get you a box of Kleenex or a supply of crying towels cause were going to have a down pour of tears causing poem and tear jerking story for you to read. As you dry your eyes please leave a sympathy note in the comments. There a list of blogs that is participating in this hop below the poem and or story.  Have fun and cry your eyes out you will feel better. It good for you, Mikey like it.     

we humans express our extreme emotions of happiness or exhaustion by letting our tears roll down our cheeks. tears when speak the language of grief, eases the pressure of pain and relaxes heart to safety.we communicate with our loved ones who become our strength and thus we find a way of returning back to sanity. our tears speak for us and humans react to humanity.  

but what about the animals, the birds? what about their heartfelt grief, their expression of disbelief? what about their tears that often do not roll but add weight to the unhappy soul when they in captivity are over powered by human's supreme intellectual ability ? we never stepped back to adore their beauty. to keep this beauty close we have adapted the cruel process of inhuman caging activity, depriving them of their natural instinct and desires, snatching the birth right to mend with their priority. 



On a lonely day. BlueBayDigital & Beachfrontal Collaboration Musicumentary



my tears are entrapped in the
intellectual poverty of kindness,
cruel intentions roar, i am caged,
my earnest cry is suppressed.

i want to return to sanity,
i want to fly to infinity,
let me spread my wings,
explore in the fresh breeze,
roam in valleys, hills and forests,
to sing a song of liberty, dignity and interest.

bind me back with the blue sky,
unite me with my beloved's eye,
set me free, hear the echo, the quest
of my children, afraid and lonely in nest.
send me back with the flock returning home,
let me join my splintered soul,
i struggle with tears, your cruelty hurts,
you play a monster role,
reaching the ambiguity pole.
the symbol of freedom, wings of a drifter,
tears deepest yarn to escape the caging sinister.

connect your soul to the earnest pledge,
keep alive the wilder thread,
we are at risk
against our silent tears. 
WE MAY ERASE IN THE UPCOMING YEARS,
HELP US BREATHE, 
HELP OUR EXISTENCE TO OUTLIVE.



I SPECIALLY THANK  JOJAN DAVIS FOR HIS EXTREMELY TALENTED INSPIRING MUSIC AND DAVID FOR MAKING THE WONDERFUL VIDEO THAT SPEAK FOR THE TEARS AND PROTEST AGAINST THE CAGING UP OF WILD ANIMALS.

Anna said...

So wonderful that you recognized wild animals in your post. I guess I had never really thought about it, but so very true that an animal doesn't have the leisure of 'crying' when they are hurt or have experienced loss. This was beautiful and I am so happy I had the opportunity to visit :)

sulekkha said...

Sancheeta, your poem was worth waiting for, wow. loved your novel approach and sensitivity towards nature. You are good...too good.

Portia said...

It is so heart-touching! Only a pius soul can realise and then voice in appropriate words the anguish of our mute fellow creatures.I just fail to understand as to why we think ourselves superior to other creatures?In fact, we are the most cruel of the species!

BlogNostics said...

You have a unique way of presenting your tears Sancheeta. Soulful! I know that the animals will surely love what you've just posted for them.

melissa said...

It's so unique what you've just written in there soul sis. I wouldn't have thought of that...but i do care for animals and I also have compassion for them... I loved it.

David said...

Thanks so much for speaking out on behalf of the animals and the cruelty and treatment just so humans can have some enjoyment. All animals deserve to be free in their natural environment without threats from mankind. Your words do a great job of bringing their pain and sorrow to light. Very nice!!

Ravenmyth said...

Breaks my heart..what a beautiful twist to this subject Sancheeta. I have always been an advocate for animals and their right to freedom. There is nothing more magical than being in their presence in the wild. You are a true advocate for this beautiful kingdom upon our earth. This poem is a powerful tool for animal rights...Thank you sooo...much for your wisdom....

Mohinee said...

I really can't say anything. But I am so thankful to you, you have given the voice to the animals who can't speak human lang. and we human never understand their lang. of love.

Love you Sis.!

The video I have seen earlier too, when you shared on our fb group. and I can't watch it full. I start crying.

fantacy in practicality said...

SULEKHA: every time i get inspired by your up boosting words, i love your presence.

fantacy in practicality said...

PORTIA: dear, you know we are both very emotional, so the intricate inner feeling of the power of the touch of our emotions make our tears priceless. i cry for sensibility.

Jim said...

Thanks for this and I hope it has been well shared. It's not just the caging of wild animals, it is also the poaching, the killing of elephants for their ivory because some Asian nations demand it. The chainsawing off of rhino horns from a drugged rhino because of the rising demand for TCM in China and Vietnam mainly. There is a crisis approaching with the survival of many wild species, because of rising affluence in Asian countries, as their incomes rise they no9w can afford tiger products, ivory, rhino horn... I could go on about this forever, but so thrilled to see other bloggers promoting the plight of wild spoecies.

fantacy in practicality said...

BLOGNOSTIC: everyone is unique in their own way, you are no exception too. i love the way you make me rise.

fantacy in practicality said...

MELISSA:soul-sis, i want to surrender to your kindness and the strength of mind. i want to be more human. i just tried my best to raise the voice against the acts that are killing our holy purpose of humanity. hope it is an awakening process towards liberty of animals.

Royal Nirupam said...

GeetS said...

I Almost Felt Like Crying ..Thanks Sancheeta for such a sensitive post ..and on behalf of my amazing animals ...I wanna say - thanks and lots of love..God bless :)

Mohinee said...

Thanks a lot Sancheeta for the entry. Freedom is so important. We can learn.

fantacy in practicality said...

DAVID: i was eagerly waiting for your comments. i knew how much you are in love with the animals. your every post either makes me cry or laugh with ERIN. so i knew you could connect with me this time more easily. thanks for your comments:))

fantacy in practicality said...

RAVEN:i am glad to hear that you are an advocate for animal and their rights for freedom. i feel honored by your words of appreciation. i wish i could do some thing more fruitful to spread the awareness.

fantacy in practicality said...

MOHINI: God has made us the most intelligent animals on earth. if we want we can understand their language too. Though we do not speak the same way but the expressions of love are same for all. we are egoist and selfish to our likes and love to overrule the weak with the dominating ignorance.

fantacy in practicality said...

SOMEONE SPECIAL: i am happy to share my space with you, keep visiting:))

TECHMAKER: i feel my words were strong enough to make you think and stop inspite of your hectic schedule. thank you for pondering over write up for a noble cause to save the innocent.

KATHIR: ah! google update, this is your first take i guess. well, you made me smile, your one word of like is enough. at least you shared my thought. your presence is always my pleasure.

fantacy in practicality said...

BONGO: joe(jojan davis) is a very good friend of mine. i came across the video few months back on his youtube channel. it moved me so much that i always wanted to write on the freedom of caged animals. thanks to roy that i got this golden opportunity to fulfill my wish. thanks to joe that he allowed me to collaborate with his music. his video added an extra intensity to showcase the pain of the caged animals. my plead became more powerful. so powerful that their tears rolled down our eyes.

fantacy in practicality said...

JIM: thanks for your lovely comments. i have seen your love for the animals in your pictures before. i knew you could understand the importance of keeping the species alive. it's high time that we all need to realise it well.

thank you for linking me with nelietem. i visited her blog and felt her tears too. we are now friends.

fantacy in practicality said...

Jim: thanks for sharing the important piece of information. i was searching for some statistical data also on the poaching of animals and the illegal trafficking of the endangered species. millions of dollars are invested as black money and it is really a game of the mafias. they really play well with these helpless animals who can't even speak and protest for their freedom rights. we must think on their behalf. i am glad that you have joined my thoughts.

fantacy in practicality said...

NIRUPAM: thank you for your presence:))

GEETA: as you already have a blog on animals and you share important facts about them, i specially wanted you to join the cause. i am glad that you did. love you sis for sharing the cause.

MOHINI: i wanted to say something more..........the video that makes you cry is created by my dear friend joe(jojan davis). without his video may be it was not possible to make my post complete. his collaboration has made my entire poem more touchy and heart felt.

the contest that you have organised is a noble thought as an INDIAN. i feel proud to be associated with it.

Nava.K said...

Nelieta said...

Jan said...

Thank you for this beautifully written cry for the animals. Thank you for bringing attention to their plight. I love the creatures that share our world as well.

Vivek said...

Hi Sancheeta,

Nice poem,
You really expressed the feeling felt , when we try to block someone from going to its most favorite place , so its also implied over animals .. very well said .. nature is the ultimate connect we all look for .. :)
