and so said ‘time’
“you have for so long
watched me go by,
now come aboard
and through my porthole
watch yourself go by
for I have been still
for as long as
I have known
myself”

Now, that’d be a GREAT explaination for the phenomenon of Relativity. And, Kudos to such simplicity in poetry. This is what I call poetry in “motion”.
wow..
what an verse sir.
so short yet such a big message.
one of your best ones.
take care
Actually Time does not care. It never cared.
We through our emotions compare time from past to future.
So when one remembers past with good memories they may have nostalgia…and if bad – with negative emotions. Same applies to future but in that case it may be hope or emotions of fear.
Very rarely an individual can connect to present, to be in tune with being…but then its rare…almost Zen like…wonder what emotion is that?
Very nice shekhar!!
When we are alone
In the silence of night
We sometimes makes friends
To them whom we do not know
Who are much far away from us
In the same way in this
Silent night
I have done friendship with
Moon and stars
With the trees and flowers
All these things we don’t know
What they speak to us
Whether they feel glad for us
Or they mourn with us
My old grandmother used to say
Moon is my uncle
Who brings smile on our faces
By bringing some toys and sweets
So I started believing that
Moon is my friend who
Nutures smile on my face
But now I have grown up
Some maturity has come in my nature
I have started
Looking the things
In terms of good and bad
So moon is no more a friend of mine
It has became a creature
Who does know not the profit and loss
So I felt
as my senses has became matured
They started driving away
My happiness
Which I got
From the tiny things of nature
The gladness
Which are available in plenty
Without a fee, without a cost
Is no more a matter of interest
For me
May be because
My matured senses have
Whispered in my ears
That only those things
Are valuable
For which we pay a huge price.
//for I have been still
for as long as
I have known
myself”//
The verses were just simple but ‘enough’ yes to convey the meaning within.
amazing one there sir .
beautiful read, Shekhar.
the inner space of what centers me
…remains still
time revolves around it
but
never enters
this stillness…is timeless.
Reminds me of a chinese verse:
Among billions of years,
Among billions of people.
we met.
In the wilderness of the everlasting time,
we met, not a step sooner, not a step later, we just met.
