I don't have a title for this one..call it what u like..


I have seen the beach make love to the sea
I have seen the light dance a tango with a stream

I have seen the wind kiss a solitary leaf
I have seen the bee being a devilish thief

I have felt the care of an unseen hand
I have felt God in a grain of sand

I have seen innocence being sold
as the price for a love gone cold

I have seen the power of a single look
I have felt the taste of a delicious book

I have felt the breath of ice
I have heard the sun's silent voice

I have gotten drunk on the wine called life
and been stabbed by its vicious knife

I have felt the world go round as i stood still
many a secret i have seen the universe spill..


Every moment, every second..
I have seen my heap grow
good, bad, old, new..I don't know..
..This is me...and my treasure trove..


PS: I request all those who read it to please include a title of your choice for this poem in the comments urf plashes section..i would love to know what this says to you
take care :)

PPS: by the way, on popular request..i have decided to award an award for the best title(the one that speaks the most to me..) from among all those left behind in the comments section..the result would be announced on the 2nd of January, 2008 in the comments section of this post. The awarded would get something special from my end(i still haven't decided what that would be so..keep guessing :D).
In order to help me judge i request u to kindly include an explanation behind the title yo chose to give this.
thank you people
love and luck

P.S. Wahi copy paste kar diya :P

the wanderlust of feelings

IncorrigibleV said...

hmmm i can only think of "my treaure trove"
why? just coz it brings abt a whole lotta emotions of ur life together.
another possible title cud be "the carousel of life"...same reason.
nuthin else struck
but beautiful work btw... drew loadsa pictures, very less ppl write like that
loved it:)

How bout "The best poetic composition of the year"

I think this suits best ;)

Those who don't agree with me will get stung by a bee in the next one minute after she logs back in!

Lena said...

thats a wonderful one. Sorry cant come up with a title. This poem needs a special one and i just cant find anything to justify the beauty of it :)

chacha said...

Eyes will see,
no matter what it be.

The moment this eyes wink,
this mind has done lots of think.

Sometimes we do feel with eyes,
surely when we see with heart,
Proof of that
when a six year old make you feel out-smart.

When we fully get sense of this world's art
we neither feel stabbed nor starved.

might be pretty amateurish, but like the poem and thought of trying my hand too :)

yeah title attempt: Blame it on eyes.
