The first morning of spring - Hamed Alrowahi

He shone in smooth ascend one morn                                                     

And oozed in amber hue.                                                       

And then unveiled the lost vignette

Which slants from then withdrew.

 

The Hillocks grew as tall as spires.

The Crocus leaned ahead.

The vehement processions

Above the brooks they went,

 

And then above the meadows

From which the winter clouds

Declared its snow relentingly

To soften in abounds!

 

He thundered by, so plashlessly,

As harshly as a sigh,

As swiftly as the petal’s fall           

That landed on my eye!

 

Ham is 19 year old Emirati poet, who currently studies health science in Canada. He's obsessed with classical poetry written in iambic meter that has beautiful musicality, specifically Emily Dickinson style ballads, Emily Bronte, and Edgar Allan Poe's romantic sonnets. He writes to express his inner feelings, as he struggle to communicate them as a person with ADHD, and to articulate his perception of random occurrences as poems.
