Foraging in marine blocks <br />Land embroidered with water <br />Flowers shedding a spicy smell <br />No fruitful vineyard in the vicinity campaign <br />Drops glittering and reflecting millions of Suns <br />I start my journey envisaged long back! <br /> <br />Wings flutter and tremble <br />Gliding in the sky of limitless score <br />With face bleached like limestone <br />Voicing a shout of enthuse <br />Journey of a lifetime <br />Starts in the mid sea! <br /> <br />The heavy burden of my wings <br />Bear upon my body <br />shout comes of breast thro’ mouth <br />No end of the road <br />Face is burnished like basalt stone <br />Fly there on a flight of no return <br /> <br />Howling from my mouth like dog <br />And taste of pain in my eyes. <br />My world seems so empty as a sea <br />I have no one else or nowhere to go <br />Dream of an anchor now! My God! <br />Sight a ship projected by the mast <br /> <br />Seating myself on the highest plank <br />Think of disembarking sooner than thought of <br />Tired of not belonging <br />Start my flight once again; <br />Finding no landscape worthwhile to bank <br />Return to the ship feeling pain in my flesh <br /> <br />Is it my sorrow? Is it my fate? <br />Like bathing the open flesh <br />In the sea so salty! <br />Unable to fly and unable to climb <br />Maimed by insults unto dust and ash <br />Show the place for my soul to rest!<br /><br />rajagopal haran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bird-in-the-mid-sea/
