Poetic Water...

 




Poems, one of the most beautiful forms of expression. Sometimes they are sonnets, sometimes ballads, sometimes epics, sometimes free verses. Poems are a huge part of me. It takes a lot of work for a collection of words to receive the nomenclature of a poem... 

    These poems give us a great deal of enjoyment and unending entertainment. Personally, I am a budding poet! Shakespeare gave me inspiration to start working on poems with more intricate details. I learnt from him that no matter how ridiculous your topic is termed by the society, you must not give up, as your success shuts their mouth. Not only him, but Robert Frost, Premchand, Ruskin Bond, Adrienne Rich and many others have given a great contribution to the charity called Literature. Poems are a great source of spending or as I say, "investing" time. I myself have currently written more than 30 poems, hoping that it quenches my eternal thirst and urge to attain fame. Through these blogs, I express my heart and soul, via a body called poem...

    Poetry is a really delicate art form which uses each and every ounce of your efforts, and at the same time, is quite easy. This habit makes the writer find allegories in each and every aspect of life. A true poet isn't the one who can just write some words which rhyme, but is the one who can express the universe within a stanza...

    I find my reflection in the poetic water of dark and reflective image of history. These are expressions of my depression and the truth of the world. But, when I sense that there is scope for good in the world of bad, I head out to the pond of joy, nature and mostly romance.

    The poem presented below is one of my favorites which features the harsh realities of the world today under the pen name of "modernity". My poem, named Le Parasite En Nous shows the world a mirror with no defects. Please read it and let me know you insight...


-Le Parasite En Nous-

The parasite within us

Humans are under attack,
And our minds are targets too.
They’re slowly being devoured by
Le Parasite En Nous.

It crept into our infant brains,
And cracked our minds in two.
This parasite grew stronger still,
As the body grew.

The poor were left to starve and beg,
Though help was overdue.
The world grew darker, fed by
Le Parasite En Nous.

With time, men grew more cunning
History bears the clue.
And all this silent rot was fed by
Le Parasite En Nous.

Officials crowned with power
Take bribes beneath the stage.
The parasite fuels every theft
In its ambitious rage.

They worship women in the light,
Then break them in the dark.
What beast devours both?
The krill and the bleeding shark?

We slaughtered what made us human,
And shaped the beasts anew.
So goes the twisted reign of
Le Parasite En Nous…

Poetic Water- 02

           In the long path of human history, we have witnessed and learnt about the very humble beginnings, to the unique urge of humans to innovate, leading to progress and evolution. On the shining and proud pavement of the timeline, there lie some pits. Pits which show humans as the worse for the planet. In those pits, lie pests, who were once known to be lethal. Dirt, the filth of the bad time. And lies some water, water of records, articles, books, literature; Poetic Water ...        This water reflects the stories of the time of these pits. Some pits, WW1 and 2, Jalianwallah Bagh Massacre, Spanish Flu, The Great Depression etc, have a great amount water in them. The literature describing these periods are infinite! In the swamp of the pit of HOLOCAUST , I would like to add another drop...      My poem, The Black Smoke, shares true events and instances molded into a story. The story of an innocent, kind, yo...

A Special Record

There are moments in life when affection grows so quietly, so steadily, that one day you realise it has become an entire universe of its own. This poem was born from that universe from a love that feels ancient, ocean-deep, and divinely placed. It is a confession, a devotion, and a promise whispered between heartbeats. And a message to my beloved... Lovie, Every time I try to explain what you mean to me, words fall short. So I wrote them differently; slower, deeper, with a bit of my soul stitched into each line. This poem is my way of telling you everything I feel but struggle to say out loud. Maybe one day, some very blessed will bestow upon me the right words to express my love to you. Till then, this is all I can do... My Eternity Oh how do I tell you, dear? How much do I adore you? This degree of fondness I ever Had for none afore you. Like Poseidon is to the waters He loves it not for the striking blue But for the jeweled ocean floors When newborn caustic lights break through. Oh...

Just a record of care...

 Moonlit Serenade In the quiet of the eve, With the cold breeze’s flow, Holding hands of her moonlight, Walking with her glow. The moon shone brighter, Blacking out the stunned horizon. The stars, jealous of her charisma, Watched her outshine the sun. Gods disguised as rain, From the heavens, descend down, To feel the warmth and wonder Of the girl who wore the crown. The trees bent in greeting, The wind played with her hair, The earth embraced her footsteps, While the mist blurred the air. We stop, stand eye to eye, Hand in hand, near the distance, And I whispered that she was The pulse to my existence. She then pulls me near, And our lips brushed together. I too began glowing, when Still fell the weather. Without saying another word, We just strolled ahead. The night itself shut her eyes, As our radiance slowly spread…
