STILL..... SO MUCH IS PENDING
*******************************
So much is pending
Still
So much.....is pending.
Just recently has landed
Glow of dawn in this life
Everything ..has acquired
Reddish hue of dawn.....
And horizon is extending
Surrounding me are doors of possibilities
Waiting for my flight is
Wide open sky
"So much is pending"
No.....still so much is pending
I have stretched my wings
I take a flight
On reaching my destination
I survey,,, around me
I won't leave.. any efforts
Because.......!
So much is pending till.
Gazeboes of history
Apertures, domes, funerary monuments, corridors
Pigeons cooing....and
Sparrows hopping in courtyard
Who own feathers
I have to approach them too
Those petty birds.....innocent
What do they want?
What are they saying?
My this calling from heavens
And... efforts in hand
Invoke me .....
" Fly"
To all the winged creatures
Sitting on gazeboes...apertures
Domes....funerary monuments .. courtyard
Keen on taking flight
Let me explain expanse of sky
In their flight from
Earth to sky
Stretching wings
Knowing direction of wind
Tell them deftness of
Flying and
Retaining connection with earth.!
