September 13, 2008 – Meenas Poems

I ponder.

I deliberate.

I think hard.

This is the question which keeps on nagging me for quiet some time.

I was some body’s child initially.

I am somebody’ else’s spouse now.

I am some others parent.

I am someones sibling.

I am tagged to someones twine.

The I ,in me is wriggling.

The I ,in me wishes to escape.

I spend sleepless nights.

My mind is restless.

The thought is haunting me.

I am unable to find an answer.

I delve deep into infinity.

I search relentlessly.

I scroll through the pages of Bhagavad Gita.

i find no answer.

My eyes are heavy,

My mind is tired.

My eyes gradually close.

I go into a deep slumber.

May be tomorrow , I will get a reply.

It is hope which sustains mankind.
