Rebirth Poem by Vijay Sai R

Rebirth

Rating: 3.2


Out I came, walking towards the deck,
getting close to the empty terrace,
just too close, not to think, Oh! No! I slipped,
I am hitting the bottom,
Boom boom goes my body,
flying in open, and slam!
goes my soul,
kissing the ground,
My heart beating like a lady bug
breathing its last,
Its getting over,
Oh! How sudden it was!
When I was awaken
in the midst of
nocturnal sleep
Oh! How sudden it was!
to realize-
A dream! ! !

*A man was having a walk at the top of a newly built construction, without a parapet wall. He went near its edge looking down and somehow lost his balance and was falling down. Lying on the ground, he thought it was almost over, which his heart and soul said. Suddenly, he was awaken, and realized it was only a dream.

Good Poem. I do get Dreams like writing exams unable to proceed with single line, but suddenly wake up and find that I got my Engineering Degree several decades back. Definitely your rebirth is rebirth only.

Flying dreams are the best, they're fun. As to falling and hitting the ground, it's said that if you ever hit the ground you really die. I wondered about that and so one night I dreamt I actually hit the ground - then I dreamt i hit the ground in a couple more dreams. Lo, I'm still here - I think. So much for these sayings said by people who don't really know but like to say they know because people seldom hit the ground in their dreams and so don't know - and yes, a thump can sometimes actually be dreamfelt. Same thing with feeling the cold steel of a knife entering you. Never having bem stabbed i wondered if the knife really felt cold. And so - it did, in a dream one night.
