Popcorn Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

Popcorn



Always had that feel that a poem could be born
When you're doing nothing lazily munching popcorn
Because doing nothing is everything, it's not a void
But a streaming popcorn welling inside you can't avoid!
In sunlight and shadows in pricking pinching weather
The nothing that knows no rest doesn't give you a breather
Doing nothing is the busiest time it's everything to savour
Like your spicy popcorn that lends living a flavour!
Doing nothing is the most fertile time for a perfect brew
Munching your popcorn thinking wildest things to do
When bored of doing nothing that in His head earth was born
God surely conceived it when He was lazily munching popcorn!

Well said and truly said. Doing nothing too makes you think and with popcorn...sounds great.
