I Am A Man Poem by Gajanan Mishra

A common man
A conventional man
I know not big things big dreams
I am need of some rice a bread
a glass of drinking water
And oxygen a piece of cloth
And a shelter and nothing else.

I am a man
A common man
A conventional man
I do not like to know
What is what and how and why
I am just sitting on the river bank
And sea shore and watch the sky
Hear the sounds of birds
See the animals ants
I knowing nothing about
Sunrise sunset.

I am a man
A common man
A conventional man
I want to keep my dreams in tact
I want to move freely here there
I want to wander in the forest
With snake bears tigers elephants
And pluck the fruits from the junglee trees.

I am a man
A common man
A conventional man
I am a man
I want to remain as such
Till the end.
