Awakening Poem by Rohan Nambiar

I like this poem, I like the imagery that it gives, nicely done.

The last two lines 'Down flowing river elloping with sea' is really catching and conveys the meaning to awaken the youth.

I can relate to this...I see it as you saying to a young person. 'Awake and know that there is a future. Don't let the wonderful opportunity pass you by like a downflowing river with waves (elloping sea) .' Yes the idea of rags to riches is a wonderful moment and your emotions take you when you are on top; but if you continue to stay in poverty, or on the level you're on, the crab-like people on the same level who are not trying to succeed, will try to keep you there in their misery. Misery loves company. That is what I got from your poem. Every success begins small, and the vision came to pass because it started with a relaxed mind that was dreaming. Keep dreaming and seeing before it awakes, and you will find that it will awake everytime. So, be careful what you dream.

I believe the title doesn't need the word youth. 'Awakening' is just fine. GW62
