Fate Has Destined Me To Be A Poet Ever! Poem by Ramesh T A

Remunerative job I thought to be best for me was medical profession;
Despite my interest so, fate drove me to study Physics at that time of life;
But my interest soon in Physics opened my heart for Nature to dwell deep;
Also, Romantic Poets' love in the life of Nature absorbed me in totality!

Fate has destined me to be a Poet with passion to know ultimate reality;
But even in this, I was driven to indulge in industrial job and become family man;
Even after seventeen years my passion of poetry did not disappear;
Afterwards I have started my venture in Poetry since thirty two years ago on!

I produced poetry like in factory due to the vigour of my passion to write;
I wrote and wrote, yet I could not make an end to this poetry writing spree;
Now after deciding to stop that passion of my poetic adventure, I think,
But no idea what to do next does appear in my mind and I write Poetry...!

The fate's spell of my being a Poet doesn't seem to leave me free yet;
How long this spell will continue God only knows and I fly so as free bird!
