Possible...? Poem by indira babbellapati

Possible...?



Never had I hoped
For the impossible
Never for wings
Nor for fins
Never had i dreamed
Of measuring
The ocean's depth
Nor the earth's breadth

Nor did I ever expect
The impossible...

All that I hoped
Was to be treated
As human as possible

All that I hoped
Was a loving glance
That would bring me shine

All that I hoped
Was a warm touch
That would melt me

All that I hoped
Was to see the earth
Filled with love

All that I hoped
Was compassion as deep
As the oceans

All that I hoped
Was a sky full of
Cheer and peace

Never had I hoped
For the impossible
Never for wings
Nor for fins
Never had i dreamed
Of measuring
The ocean's depth
Nor the earth's
Length and breadth...

Ironies of life, we seem to be struggling for achieving things that are easily possible. Beautiful poem.

Ah, I would gladly trade any hold on the impossible for the possible
