A Poet Is Born! Poem by Ramesh T A

I would have become either a doctor or a physicist;
Neither of the two have I become after my studies;
My parents’ dream of me as an engineer didn’t happen.
My internal urge to write novel or articles made me crazy;
But my family business works made me always busy.
Whenever the urge to write came I deplored in loneliness;
Likewise days, weeks, months and years went away fast!
I poetically wrote about my unfulfilled plight to my friend;
Words flowed from the heart, mind and soul without stop!
I relaised why I couldn’t write poetry whenever urge pressed!
It took me 17 years to write flowing poetry for 20 years!
This is how a natural poet is born in reality by surprise!
Our fascination may be different from our natural urge;
But our inner spirit expresses itself by our own natural urge!
