COPE UP OR PERISH!

COPE UP OR PERISH!

 

The calmness that prevails is quite unusual;

It reminds me of the stillness after storm;

Though strange and weird, my mind still surges ahead;

And keeps surveying the incredible mysteries of time.

 

Depressions do occur in atmosphere and mind;

Not of this sort as it stays still for long;

More than ever, it lingers and refuses to move,

Hence the struggle persists in mind and soul.

 

It’s just another morn, but the dawn is caught napping;

I doubt if the night has dozed off too long, letting darkness stay!

Or, the day has slumbered off more than usual? Nevertheless,

Everything seems to stand still except time and man!

 

I’m off to work and on a transport I board;

And I know, I got to cope-up with, what I’m left with;

So unnatural and unrealistic; still I got to take it,

For I got to take life as such; and never shy-away!

Unless man knows how to cope up with nature and fellow human beings, he will perish

Or become an ascetic :-D

Or become an ascetic at Hrishikesh .The cool climes amidst hills and dwelling in some "ashram" could do wonders . Just off-hand observation Laughing
