Born to Write
I
grew behind
The
suburb heights,
The
yellow flower
Paved
the light
Of
my steps.
I
gifted words to blank pages,
They
gave me reasons
To
remain alive.
The
woody grassland,
The
cicadas that ring
In
the evening twilight
Press
signs of permanence
Where
the heavy heart
Smiles
often.
The
pain of carrying
A
heavy heart
Gushes
down
With
a thundering waterfall.
Words
have emotions,
They
reach out in help.
The
face value of words
Has
underlying
Literary
meaning.
I
chase not
The
material stars
That
glitter
Only
for the sights.
I
seek soul-consciousness
And
a social cave
Of
wisdom weaving
Through
words.
Image of Freedom
Life is free.
No chains
Caging the mind,
No crowd-pleasing
Temptations.
A ginger painted sky
The migratory birds,
All free from
The cage of the sky.
A watermark
On your forehead
Not mistaken
For a sweat bead,
Of labour and burden.
You dance barefoot
In your garden,
I play the music
For you.
I am freedom
With a new attire.
Let me fill the blank heart
Like pages with verses.
A true jazz of time
Keeps away
The melancholic blues.
