Commotion


Let it go
Let it stay
Let it run
But see it does not run away
Let it feel
Let it touch
Let it hold
But only till you can behold
Sweet noise
Purple dust
Morning and Twilight of dusk
Sincere love
Pathetic anyways ?
Sooth your heart
Open it
Smell it
But see that you don't hurt it
Don't eat it
It might not taste so good
As it looks to be
Be like that
Do like this
Compare
Don't Consult
Judge by your brain
Not your heart
Judge
By the ways
You have experienced
Life
And not by the
Ways taught to you
Sense it
And it will be yours
May be
Forever...

What the hell is commotion in that?
What's 'it' in the poem?
If it is a flower
Consider again-
...Let it run
But see it does not run away...Why would it?
...Sweet noise...Never heard of a noisy flower!
...Don't eat it...!?

And if it is a man, a strange way to flirt...and honestly, mischievous.

Please make the point clear... my comments will follow!

And lastly, whom were you flirting?
(Sorry, if you took my jest seriously...no harm meant...honestly.)
Where did u get the idea it was a flower Krishanu ??? @_@ ??

I really like this piece of urs. If i am allowed to say --one of ur finest till date.
Truly there is a lot of commotion in the poem(yEs! FiNalLy I find a PoEm!!eeeh)
Anyway, the continuos struggle between ur heart and mind is quite evident..i agree with u..let it "run"..and go whereever it takes you.
As a song goes
"let ur love fly free"
I read the first comment and was LOL-ing all over the place...really @(O_o)@...i agreed with him on a post on a particular blog before i came here and saw this comment of his!!
Anway..dont let the commotion take over u as an individual or u might regret losing urself in the process(since this is a lesson i learnt quite recently, i think im capable of giving some 'gyaan')
Cheers

now "it" may have several meanings but i guess i'll predict tht it stands for love.. love needs freedom and not enuf freedom tht it "runs away"!!!

nice rhyming!!

keep blogging!
@ Poetess .. thank you so much .. I am "honoured" u finally found one of my writings as a POEM ..:)and yes i agree to ur interpretation .. The commotion of heart and mind ...

@ Parv .. yes . "it" has many meaning in the eyes who read it .. to you "it"meant that way .. a very successful meaning !! :)

Thank You .. Both of you

I am Society

I am society I am the mind I am greedy I am the kind I am love And I am peace I am what you Think of me is I twirl and twist And stop the change I break the bottle And shift the phase I am Mighty I am a Beast I can be tasty But I can be least Least bothered Least concerned Lest you make Me feel I am perfect I am time I am mortal I am fine I am a story I am a tale I was the king And the angel I am cold Cold like the mountains And I am warm Warm When the sunshine beats When the grenades fail I am the blanket I inhale All your sorrow All your grief I am old And I am ancient But I am patient I am the society - Saswati Barat

Dedication

Life seems to unfold When you think you have settled down And makes you stir in that comfy seat of yours As if telling you not to just yet Put your guard down And that frown Which finds its way through your face Might project a lot of disgust To life's amusement And bring about that little change you never would have welcomed Could this be a challenge ? Another "life's games" may be ? Or is it much more complex Rather simple in its terms To juggle ones fate In their own hands If you drop it You loose ! And if you don't Master is sure to find a way you do And even if you survive Life ain't gonna make this easy for you Why do we strive so hard So hard in this once in a lifetime ? Purely not indulging to our pleasures To counter react on our impulses Better off Less than Why is it so hard to believe we live And live not for one's sake but life's ? - Saswati Barat
