IMPULSE

written by: Ibrahim "dreezy" Idris

From the echoes of the mourners
I feel I’ve lost my life
As this garden of misfortune
Dims all my source of light

I keep hanging up lanterns
In a myriad of memories
As the pieces left of us
Lies in a forgotten gallery

I’m only acting on this impulse
Of your words so crystal clear
As I only remember them
Within dreams of my fears

Bridie is just a wife, mother and grandmother who loves to write. She is a retired teacher and is also a busy photographer. She lives with her husband in the countryside in west Limerick. Her late dad was a popular and successful poet and author. She discovered that she had a flair for writing following retirement when life slowed down a little. She was encouraged by family members to develop this hidden gift. As grandchildren arrived she was inspired to write about experiences with them and has had articles and poems published in local newspapers and journals. She is working towards publishing a book of her writings in the near future.

ALBERT CAMUS’S – 'THE PLAGUE' - ITS RELEVANCE TODAY by GS Subbu
