It gives me great pleasure to put across my new poem for your perusal. As always, the title was decided first...which I think is a statement connected with my God Man - Shirdi Sai Baba. Not sure he uttered it himself during his life time or people around him conceptualised his teachings in capsule format.....as per the poem title...What ever way it is, I like this so much....!!
We never understand the depth of words (for that matter, even the most common words that we use) until we experience them deeply within ourselves. I always had a doubt that Language is just a discovery of human beings and not an invention....MEANING people tried to form words based on their feelings and emotions AND the naming did not happen as accident (I just mean verbs and words relating to expressions / feelings / thoughts; To some extend, nouns too...but I am some how very sure about verbs....). Well this becomes altogether a different subject.....!!
{Well on titling of poem, it has always been my practise to start dreaming after choosing a title.....but I was dumbfound recently when one of my team member at office who writes poems (sort of pudhu kavidhay) told me that she did not have the habit of giving names to poems !!!} !! It was a learning for me on that day when I spoke to her....!! Such is the variety and possibility available to human beings....!!
Here you go....AND watch out....There is another shorter version poem on the same title in the posting that is following this one.... So, you have double treat to begin the week in grand manner....!! Sabaash...

Hi Suren,
ReplyDeleteI suddenly see a pessimistic Suren in this poem, espescially in ur 3rd para who is convinced by ur title.
Why is it so? U used those words only as a poet or as a Common Man?

Dear Ganesh
ReplyDeleteThanks for feedback. Well, where is the pessimism.....in the third para...? Is it not a fact that only a rarest person attains self realization out of lesser mortals....??
By the by, I am just a common man writing poem. Or a poem writing common man !! There are no "two"s in this blogging adventure.
Please be in constant touch. Will be posting my review on latest tamil film that I saw "eeram" shortly.... !! Cheers
