It`s Realisation Time Poem by M D Dinesh Nair

It`s Realisation Time



As the skin realizes
The aftermath of your aging, hey, man
You begin to falter at
Your revelations again and again.

Experience is a comb that
You are bound to possess
When you are blessed with
A bald head hey, man.

In the seclusion of things torn apart
By time and flimsy triumph
You will stand realizing
The ultimate truth unraveled to you ever.

Scientists and priests are reading out
From the foliages of truth and lie.
You can find the former admitting the borders often
And the latter dilating upon the unknown oftener!

When you say “goodbye”
To every one near and dear
The bugles of a past wasted for no reason
Will be heard high above your shroud.

A soul that can`t be there won`t make
A way out of your corpse,
A heaven that you have ever dreamt of
Won`t be waiting like a ship.

An eternity you would long for
Will cave into its void unknown.
Your realization, therefore,
Better come a little before hey, man.

In the oblivion of times and things
Making a bee line of the sort
A realization will one day emerge
From the heap of your thoughts odd.

Your great heart may then
Beat like that of a true human being
As it begins to echo the pulse
Of a life still thriving on.

Weep not and sigh not hey, man
For it costs little and little for you
To smile for a span of a small life
After the realisation of everything dawns on!

Realization and humanization of the educated stock stand as stumbling blocks... The human race has only one option left it seems - begetting the same tribe till infinity! Madam Valsa, out of your affinity and kind regard for me you always prefer to see me REALIZING the love and forgivence of 'God' much to my amusement. Thanks a lot for this Samaritan thoughts. I see just an angel flopping his wings in vain And would advise him to land down onto the even ground. 'Sneering' is the word most of your tribe would attribute for such views The other day I was reading about such ' liberal ' connotations' often thrown at a stretch. The world has ever been thus... it is a hopeless case now. These 'angels' ushering the 'souls' into the VOID of things IMAGINARY And this 'God' perplexed about the INNOCENT NON BELIEVERS extending a broad mind Cannot make even an iota of REALIZATION. Thank you Chandrupatla sir, Kavya and Shaleheenji for your kind of appreciation. A realization will be late, I mean very late, friends.

You sneer at a Heaven Waiting for souls like us! When you are ushered into its gates By angels sounding bugles Hey man, regret your words And wonder how strange are God's deeds!
