Eye Sigh 👁 (original poetry)
(Edited)
Eye sigh
Sighs do not only leave our mouths,
they exit our eyes, as well —
like crumpled clouds losing courage,
sailing emptily to the ground.
An eye sigh, versus an eye roll,
is more forgiving and pitying ...
because it knows,
that under the luminous umbrella
called Human Love
cower dark things
like vanity, fear, weakness,
jealousy, even sickness,
destruction and hate.
I, sigh
—y. Lababidi, author of Learning to Pray

Learn to pray
in this transit of
reflection called
humanity.
As I read this, these words came out... It is like a light when I have the opportunity to read a poem.
Bless your heart. I can think of no better response to poetry, than poetry 🙏🏽
May you walk in Beauty ✨
Very beautiful, enchanting, melancholic, and fascinating poetry! Indeed, it as you say in a very meaningful and truthful manner, more specifically that our eyes sigh as well... Perhaps sometimes even more than the physical sound of the sigh that exists the mouth, which is very sad indeed...
Sincere congratulations for this poem! All the best, much health, take care, stay safe, many blessings, and great peace your way! Keep up the good work and God bless you! 😊🙏✌️☮️
Thank you, for your generous response. Blessings 😇

Much appreciated & be well 🙏🏽
Many thanks as well!
