Body And Heart Poem by Suresh Dogra

Year upon inevitable year
Is loaded on heart
With constant fear
The body will depart

Little heart knows
No constricting bounds
Each second it goes
On endless rounds

Runs with the winds
Rides on the tides
Flirts with fiends
Befriends the skies

For poor body of flesh
It is hard to cope
With each call afresh
Of heart's infinite scope

Driven day after day
Body opts to part
Terminates the play
Of timeless heart
