Sebbaħni bil-mewġ

għorokli  l-ġrieħi bil-melħ

ħelwa l-ħbiberija,

sabiħa,

isserrħek

żommli idi, għattili għajnejja

ħa negħreq fik

ma tafnix,

ma tafx li nħobb ngħum

fil-fond biss.

    Dear Miriam
    The above poem has more to it than what shows at its surface level. That’s a rich quality in any poetry.

    May I humbly suggest that you improve the following words: ogħrokli, isserrħek, negħreq. They seem to have escaped your attention!

    It’s my dream that small groups of writers meet and discuss each other’s works (especially poems and short stories). So much can be gained from the feedback given. What do you think?

    Regards

      Grazzi Joseph. Fil-fatt qabżuli jiena u nikkopja għax ovvjament fil-Leħen il-Malti huma ppubblikati tajjeb – pero ‘għorokli’ ħallejnieha kif inhi fit-test. Interessanti li għalik tinqara bħala kmand, imma din hija n-natura tal-poeżija u s-sabiħ tagħha wkoll…

      Jiena ili xi snin norganizza workshops ta’ din in-natura. Bħalissa m’hemm xejn ippjanat għax fis-sajf innaqqas is-sessions. Tista’ tingħaqad magħna fil-grupp ‘The Creative Writing Lab’ fuq Facebook biex tkun taf meta jkunu se jsiru workshops oħra. Il-grupp huwa mimli nies li jħobbu l-kitba 🙂
