Poem74.A Battle Field

A Battle Field

Read or write
sit or stand
do it right
or stand blurred.

Wish or don't
seconds run by
minutes move so
and days goes by.

Off and on
in and out
hospital ,home
travel a lot.

Like a bee
for nectar
visits medics
for the cure.

Allergy, they say
simple ,it seems
suffer irritation
how to explain?

Continuous
battle for breath
struggle to carry
yourself as normal.

Day or night
me,a battle field
where 'will' fights
with circumstances.

Fighting with all my might
who will win let us watch
I won't fail, I am sure
for strong mind, I do have.

Poem73.Happy To Call It A Dream

Happy To Call It A Dream

Walking, walking,
dreamily , calmly,
just going,
aimlessly.
 
Deserted area,
nearby calm sea,
wind blowing,
just walking.

Speeding cycle,
suddenly she saw,
at a distance,
and wished to call.

Thunder sudden;
made her turn,
what she saw,
made her churn.

The sea was rising,
eating the land,
eagerly coming,
to take her hand.

Wanted to shout,
no voice came out,
death, the thought,
strike her just.

Suffocation
lack of air
Struggling
Deep blackness.

Sudden shaking ,
heard him ask
"what happened"
realized, not dead.

Touch by hands of death,
shook me inside out,
Spared out this time;
so, happy to call it a dream.

Remembering the beautiful words of  Robert Frost
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep. "

Poem72.The Truths

The Truths

Sitting in my grave
yet won't recognize
one shovel mud per day
or one per one minute.

The rates only differs
the task is the same
you dance be happy
cry or hate you do.

Whatever or whichever
however you have to
ought to will do
fill , your grave.

You hate or love the thought
the fact remains the same
each sec takes you more
complete towards your goal.

You negate ,say not the case
but one day you have to leave
all the whims, and fancies
which you call yours.

Birth death, the truths
mankind like to avoid.
Birth you can control
death, can you stop???

Poem 71. Precious

Precious

Hunger to mingle
laugh with  ease
increase increase
difficult to control.

To be among people
watch ,argue,feel
get angry, be sad
wishing for all that.

Lives in comfort
being mentally a pauper
By world, should be happy
but not at all.

If comforts bring happiness
why does it play as a mirage
just being in front of me
not attainable..

What is precious, dear tell me,
happiness or comforts?

Poem 70.Fire of Dreams

Fire of Dreams

Conflicts between what am
what wanted to be
always  back in mind.
At times it reaches that point
where you burn yourself
with inferiority
but sits idle
feeling helpless 
day dreaming 
just allowing self
to get ruined in the fire of dreams.
Is it fair to yourself?
Why and why can't I find the courage
from the fire to leap forward
reach the goal or atleast try?
Dreams should give you power
to aim, shoot and reach your goal.
Or you will be like a volcano
always ready to erupt........
