And then,
A silkworm cocooned and marooned on a
leaf,
Would know of its power with which to
weave,
Silk that would last more than a
century,
Silk to change grotesque into pretty.
And then,
A butterfly flapping its large wings
vibrant,
Hurriedly pursuing nectar and scents,
Would know of the power encased in its
form,
The power to unleash a mighty storm.
And then,
A man caught unaware in the grind,
Burning within with a will to drive
-
Darkness out and light a candle,
Would know of the power with which to
handle
The desire to change the world as we
know,
Into a land where virtues flow.
And then, it glowed! |
Naive in thought, and usage of words, the above poem had to make it here because it was the first time I composed something during an exam! Yes, so, a souvenir from there.

The desire to change the world as we know,
ReplyDeleteInto a land where virtues flow. Brilliant!
Tarique! You already commented? This makes me so happy :)
DeleteSo this is the one you were talking about...Nice one indeed...You are aspiring to be someone who would dispel the deepest of the darkness in the society or may be you are already the one-the torchbearer with a butterfly effect... :)
DeleteI only hope to fit this description someday :)
DeleteHow do you do it? Am awed!! With your words you give life to poetry!
ReplyDeleteThe letters
laid in conundrums
hatch;
as your words
scatter worlds
on sublime
pillars of emotions.
Dreams surface
from curbed desires;
a life emerges
from chrysalis..
The folds
unfold
into
a colorful
vivid,
that flutters;
then flies
into the
whims and fancies
of what we call -
Life.
