☆ Birth of a Poem…  ☆

☆

The  hapless day,  when  the

heartful  writing  is not done,

Pen has not danced elatedly

on the mystic spotless paper,

Is a day utterly wasted with

the  night,  grimly  sleepless..!

* 

 Until the effusive emotions

flow like mountainous river

Never  does  the  field  of

letters get fully soddened,

Soddened to get sown with

seeds to give birth to a poem..!

The pen has lightened the ever    

overpowering  worldly  anxieties,

How else, would I ever be able

to carry so much of cosmic burden             

Everyone may know how to read,

But may not, comprehend a poem!
