E - Everyone

Cost Of Daydreaming...

by Eros


The loud distinct voice turned into faint senseless prattle;

the white letters on the blackboard faded into the space.

Staring ahead, gazing through the board into the world so far,

painted with vivid colors of the art, happiness and freedom filled the air,

where the sun and the moon were the heaven's living heirs. 

--

Riding the hot air balloon and flying up in the sky.

looking down at the prince and the princess 

dancing together with locked gazes,

and at the flowers chatting with the bees,

and the bud blossoming at the soft touch

of the girl so pretty and as gentle as the breeze.

--

Finally the call of conscience arrived,

"You'll be charged extra for having more fun,"

and it pulled me back into the reality,

my eyes staring back at the board,

realizing how much of the taught concept I had lost.

The pain and regret was the same as that of

the moment we realize the extra loss of balance,

after the fully exhausted mobile data.

Sophie here to review!
first stanza- so descriptive, I can see myself sitting in a chair staring at the board like this student is. the vocabulary is amazing! its so sophisticated and adds to this day dreaming
second stanza- this is showing the fairy tale portion of day dreaming and I love it! its so true and relatable with good descriptions.
third stanza-this really pulls it back together because it kind of drops the weight on this student. the world seemed perfect until they realize the truth. it is very well written and I enjoyed reading this quite a lot.
I believe my favorite stanza was
"

Finally the call of conscience arrived,

"You'll be charged extra for having more fun,"

and it pulled me back into the reality,

my eyes staring back at the board,

realizing how much of the taught concept I had lost.

The pain and regret was the same as that of

the moment we realize the extra loss of balance,

after the fully exhausted mobile data."
because it was so sad and made me feel the emotion and disappointment

Thank you so much, Sophie!

Helloooo! I'm here to review your poem. Honestly, I think your poem really shows the reality of life, it's not all fun and games, your actions have consequences. This is something I had to learn last year.... ahahaha. Anyways, I really enjoyed your poem and it was easy to understand, which was cool. I really liked the moral and I look forward to see more from you in the future! Overall, 10/10 poem, awesome job!

I love this so much. It's beautiful as well as relatable to people who love imagining or are creative. I personally feel this poem a lot as a daydreamer and I love to imagine things and make up worlds and stories in my head. This put in words, how I drift away to see beautiful and magical things in my mind but then the voice of the teacher or the classroom interrupt me. And my dreams go away, and I'm back in the awful classroom to reality and work.

My favorite line, (although I have many) is probably this:

~Finally the call of conscience arrived,

"You'll be charged extra for having more fun,"

and it pulled me back into the reality,

my eyes staring back at the board,

realizing how much of the taught concept I had lost.~



AHH SO BEAUTIFUL AND MEANINGFUL!
The only critique I have for this- is just a couple missing commas and everything else was great!
Keeping writing, I love this! :)
Hope this little review was helpful and encouraging.

Thank you so much!! :D

Hi,
So nice, daydreams of children and adults during the lectures, the mind flies in the sky like a bird mean while the lazy body rests on the chair.

Finally the call of conscience arrived,

"You'll be charged extra for having more fun,"

and it pulled me back into the reality,

my eyes staring back at the board,

realizing how much of the taught concept I had lost.

The pain and regret was the same as that of

the moment we realize the extra loss of balance,

after the fully exhausted mobile data.

The last stanza is also a nice part as well very funny too. the concept of regret and the concept of balance and mobile data are well placed.
so nice to read this poem. keep writing.




Eros says...


Thank you so much, chinku!! Btw are you from India? Your username makes me think like that



Chinku says...


You are welcome, yes, fortunately I'm from India.



Eros says...


Nice to see another Indian! *Cheerio!



Chinku says...


Hey, I would like to ask you for some reviews on my poems. If you could.



Eros says...


Yeahhhh I will be glad!!




The idea that a poem was a made thing stayed with me, and I decided then that I wanted to be an artist, not just a diarist. So I put myself through a kind of apprenticeship in writing poetry, and I understood even then that my practice as a poet was deeply related to my reading.
