Of A Sinking Friend Poem by kanav justa
Of A Sinking Friend
on a sunday morning, as i saw my clock
like usual i woke up late
rays from sun blinded my eye
as i opened my main home gate
that morning though the things were same
but still my heart felt strange
still blinded my the light of sun
my pupil size did change
soon i could see the world around
clear as the deep blue lake
i cursed myself for my habits bad
at the night of staying awake
as i looked beneath, the side of my feets
i could see a small bird lay
a beautiful bird with a god's own grace
and colour of wings dark grey
i picked him up to see whats wrong
it was too small a bird to fly
it seemed as if he was struggling to live
and his eyes said he would die
soft hands of mine did grab him hard
as i held him in my hand
the wings of bird to frail to fly
and feet too numb to stand
a bond so strong between he and i
in that moment i could feel
but he closed his eyes, and my heart still sighs
of the pain that the time didnt heal
As friendship has no barriers of caste, creed or religion and as it is bound on love infinite, every right friend will triumph at the end despite the adversity or odd happenings that precede. Kanav, as a master poet of thoughts and expression in true blend, you have made this a fine write and I am giving an immediate 10 for this beautiful piece that I would like to re read later....
We live to feel love in our hearts and to give love, to feel the pain of this fragile little bird as it dies in your caring hands is an impact of kindness and compassion! Beautifully written! !
Even such a simple sight as that of a dying bird can move the sensitive heart of a poet! So think of those who grieve over the death of someone dear or the parting of a pet that has been part of our life for a long time! If you had woken up a little earlier, perhaps you could have saved it! So make it a practice... early to bed and early to rise! !
