Reverse Prayer Poem by Soumita Sarkar

Reverse Prayer



I pray for smile
You offer tear
If courage is the rage
You make me more timid
South is my journey
Still north you push
Effort in all to shine
No blessing in divine
Hope still burning night
My defeat is your delight

Suggest me a reverse prayer
I beg negative
Perhaps then you
shall turn positive
I ask for only confusion
Perhaps you in delusion
May grant me in profusion
All the fortune
Wipe misfortune
If ask for grief
Perhaps you make me grand
Let me make a prayer reverse
Let me ask for all adverse
Let me ask to grant unhappiness
Then may your offer me universe

Yes, life often gives the opposite of what we desire. I would stop short of desiring negative in hopes of having reverse prayer answered though. Peace

My father used to say, Man proposes God disposes. I too have turned back from demanding any thing from God with brlief that he would definitely do better for me and I am de my own job. To give or not to give I'd his duty not mine nor to my looe after. So keep patience and let the life be assailed to the universal truth. I congratulate you for your open hearted expression Thank you much for sharing.
