Rajesh Prothi Poems

Tonight I shed tears of grief
For all those who left us in a moment brief

Parted ways yesterday, promised to meet up today
...

I am the fragrance that has carried the generations from the times unknown.
I am like an icicle, obvious & stunning, yet not perpetual.

I am like a dewdrop on a grass strand, and a rising sun.
...

Patience is all I have, for you to become a papyrus on which I will write the story of my life.
Will mention the starry nights, the cool breeze and the oak tree.
I will write about the dust on my shoes and the torn socks.
I will also write about the butterflies and the honey bees.
...

Time has come for me to rise, for I have suffered long,
The tears I shed since time unrecorded, need to be accounted for,
Each time, I lost my bearing or my extension,
To the circumstances of not my making, I cried in dark,
...

Let me whisper a word or two,
Or maybe more,
There are tales to be shared, stories to be told,
Each word to be heard, each phrase to be imbibed,
...

Serenity at what price will you come?
To me, it is time now, enough toll has been exacted
Many nights have passed without a wink,
Many thoughts have drifted into the void,
...

The buzz of a dragonfly and the chirping of a sparrow, are all part of him. Rajesh heads AbsoluteFactor, a full-service media relations and digital communications agency. He is also the Founder & Chief Editor of www.thecherrytree.in)

The Best Poem Of Rajesh Prothi

Apre Deluge

Tonight I shed tears of grief
For all those who left us in a moment brief

Parted ways yesterday, promised to meet up today
Set out for yet another night and beautiful dreams at bay

Providence had its way, dreams got washed away, spirits sagged as life tried to battle with nature's way.

Many unknown unsung people lost
Those who were still to play life's host

Folks who had still many breaths left
Many sunshines, moonlit nights and twinkling stars to count

Not a second thought, no second chance, no second leaf
For all those who left us in a moment brief.

Still the phoenix in us will have to rise
To hold and lead the pride and be wise

To rebuild the heaven with love is the goal
And offer succor to each bereaved soul

To restore the glory of yesteryears
Peace and progress and brotherhood of seers.
