Life & Beyond

Running as a child  

In a full grown grass field

towards a windmill-

Silently, slowly whirling 

One blade after the other

Like a watch-body,

A firki in one hand

And a kite in the other

Gleeful laughter spread

Illuminating the soft features of the small, delicate face

That has so much to find, so much to know

It's  about inception of a mind to the world 

Being inducted into life and it's weird  principles 

Seeing the child running  towards  the windmill in a grass field

À kite and a firki in both hands

Giggling joyfully,

No more blinking of a light in the human mind

There is nothing to find,

Nothing to know anymore..

Life -known, felt, resigned

Every inch of the earth, people known, well researched,  warrants no more inquisitiveness

No longer curious

Mo more journey forward

Walking around nameless trees and

Whatever mystery  that is upheld beyond the sky

The stale mind enters into a slate like river-bed...

Lots of sand gaping -

Overstretched  narrates dullness

Still a patch of water flowing 

Going somewhere continuously, hooks the attention that friges slowly

A wistful thought arises 

O Ocean, willI I ever be able to reach you

With my tired limb and painful legs..

Not a river nor a cloud

How can I reach life-beyond, while being in life

But that's the catch, jerks and compels the aching being to move forward 

Towards nowhere,  to find nothing...
