Centuries, I can see no more
Is it a curse or our heightened stupidity
Or a karmic effect, a kind of blessings for me
To grow and hence a blessing with all
Built in suffering and inexplicable pain..
Was it a dream then, something that one could forget
it like a dream or a short story to be forgotten
No i can't believe it was a false perception or feeling
Nor is it ancient history or a lie ..yes past can't be
A false memory..
Look at the rainbow in the winter sky or on a rainy day,
The countless stars in the dark night
The lovely roses of different shades of colour
With beautiful thorns enveloping them and other plants
too transmitting fragrance to attract the bees
And of course the tall mountains, deep oceans
They all have the freshness of the dew and retain
All the glory and legacy of nature.
Then how is it that and why is it that
I can't see in you what I saw once, long ago
I do understand you as I have understood me
Being connected genetically and intellectually
This drama has been enacted by the supreme
He knows what's good for all of us
Forget who is right and who is wrong
We must get out of the egoistic journey
and start smiling at the absurdity and uncertainty
Of life ,the fragile life like a glass window
Against which I had a head on collusion, the other day
I have less years to live by,
If my life span is destined to be long
My only prayer is I must move without
Anyone's
Note this poem was help and walk through life
Towards death with smile on the face
At the appointed hour.
Yes my dear life is beautiful
Suffering is the spice of life
Luxurioous life is boring and devoid of charm
You are always with me, like you were earlier
And you will be in distant future too and
during after life too, for ever...
Note
This poem was written today morning
But while typing now the entire format has changed
The contours of the lines have fallen from somewhere
A request for the readers...we come here only once
We shall not travel back through time ..let us live at each moment. Love and labour and remain happy with a smile on our lips always.
We shall not forget to laugh at our own stupidity and also at the shallow and crooked democracy of ours
