FORGING AHEAD ON LIFE’S LAST TRACK

FORGING AHEAD ON LIFE’S LAST TRACK


Aliens are some actions to me and to my character;

Soft soaping and soft pedaling I keep at a distance;

Traditions and culture if at all prove too difficult to handle,

I blow them off to upset the applecart!

 

Rules are to follow but not meant to destroy,

The mind gets decimated when bent against someone;

Egos, pop-up and innocents mercilessly challenged;

What if the challenged, challenges the challenger?

 

The mind has an orbit through which it traverses;

No compulsion what so ever is needed to keep it on track;

The mind just takes ‘conscience’ as its guide,

But refutes, who so ever who puts it at stakes.

 

No man on earth can contain nature’s infinite ferocity;

No sail on boat withstands even a depleted storm;

Even super-structures crumble when pitted against quakes;

Oh!  It’s hard to understand the ‘Ever-changing Thoughts’ of human mind!

 

The mind gets depressed with jumbled thoughts,

When external matters force themselves in to fill the vacuum;

And then it gets heavily laid and struggles to hold;

Hence the confusion to keep ‘Life’ on normal course.

 

Oh!  I wanna sail, smooth sail through the rippleless river of life;

Glide through the mist like a spoon that slips through the buttery cream;

Wanna breeze past, so gentle through a peaceful but exquisite life;

Oh!  I’m confused not; and so I wish to forge steadily ahead on life’s last track! 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

To keep yourself going successfully, obey your conscience and do what you like to do without minding about others.  But, don't be selfish what so ever!

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
