Day 243 - Sestina

 SESTINA 


Prompt - Sestina : Give a try to writing a sestina poem


I am a product of this Land

But understanding's Hard

What can tell you where to Look?

Does anyone really Know?

All I really want is Hope

Amidst the random Noise


I'll add my voice to all that Noise

In the debate across the Land

Can I give some added Hope?

But giving hope is Hard

When could you ever Know

If people take a Look?


It doesn't matter how I Look

What matters now is Noise

To say, to hear, to Know

Being cleared to sagely Land

On ground that shows up Hard

And resonates with Hope


How to unlock that Hope?

Where do the people Look?

When they try so Hard

To hear beyond the empty Noise

That blares across the Land

But why they do not Know


What is there now to Know

Except that we need Hope

Like catching sight of Land

From the crow's nest's clear eyed Look

Push beyond the ocean's Noise

The landing hits us Hard


The bed we've made is Hard

The life we've come to Know

We all must make our Noise

We all must marry Hope

We all must clearly Look

Upon the silence of the Land


It's always Hard to find real Hope

To Know where one should Look

With so much Noise across the Land
