Poem44.Live in Present

Live in Present

Leaning on an elbow

peering out a window.

View the road nearby

morning flying by.

 

People moving,

vehicles going

children running

horns are sounding

Busy on their own walks

each of them  in journey ahead

what they do,where they go

who knows, who cares.

Want for a bright future

forgets to live todays.

we run,work , gain fortune,

but health deteriorates.

Thriving for better lives

makes us run very fast.

What happens if we decides

sure,do live in present.

Death a dangling  blade

hangs on each one's head

Better for us live today,

tomorrows who can say .

Entered for Jingle's Poetry Potluck -Journey and the Road Ahead!!!!!

Poem43.Hesitation

Hesitation

Being within home for long

effected me more than I thought

was never aware until recent

when the family tree gathered.

A blow so strong it was

deep down struck so hard.

disturbed I feel in group

worries,will do some blunder .

But for that day I knew

somewhere something wrong

if in this shell any long

will go mad, thought rang .

A healthy person ,yes I am,

no visits ,seldom visitors .

Family see, morning evening,

they always move out and in .

Shell of my own creation,

tortoise with me if competition

who will put their head out more?

ha, dear turtle will win the race.

A parrot in a golden cage ,

with mineral water,packet foods,

both of us bothers not

what happens outside confines.

Hesitation to go out mingle

excuses a lot we have.

Man as social animal

why oh! God you created?
