Come Anytime Poem by Mittur Ramprasad

COME ANYTIME

Like a owner of a lost pet
Sooner or later you will come
To see me in my home
Even when I don’t lay welcome carpet

I know there is no escape
From your warm loving embrace
When I run out of my days
You will wrap me like a drape

So I will be ready waiting
Anytime of the day and night
I will not be surprised by your sight
When you come without ever knocking
Come anytime

Like no other kith and kin you are different
You are always there like a shadow
Following me wherever I go in life’s meadow
Waiting to cradle me at the right moment
I know after all is said and done
My journey will end in your arms
Where I can sleep in world of dreams
Sailing on sea of tranquility up and down

So I will be ready waiting
Anytime of the day and night
I will not be surprised by your sight
When you come without ever knocking
Come anytime

So hesitate not when it is time
To knock on my door to take me along
To the final place where I belong
Whether it is in rain or sunshine

But human urge makes me to wonder
Will there be a warning before your arrival
As it matters in the struggle for the survival
For the survivors to break the link forever
