Poetic Dilemma

Poetic Dilemma
-----------------------

Sounds of paper movement and running of ceiling fan,

Roaring of plying vehicles, and whistles of road van.

Holding pen, diary on desk but with void brain

Trying to find some ways for motion of self-train.

Deficiency of words, and lacuna of ideas,

Hindering to move ahead, though desiring for media.

Finding it difficult to open closed doors of enlightenment

Apparently satisfied, but inside only disenchantment.

Enough age has already passed, but not done much significant

Just look busy day & night, but not found fine  track.

This is morning time but mind is still not fresh,

Motion is very slow, body & mind need refresh.

Needing all contrivances to make life great

Heaps of knowledge outside, but not much help.

So far have not come out of self-boastfulness,

Always remained untangled in own lowliness.

Not realized much life’s greatness and fathoms

Neither living nor maturing, not attained rhythms.

Trying to feel self-numbness, pain & sensations,

May perhaps lead to first step of transcendental meditations.

Out of self-dilemmas, some people definitely have come,

and are able to show to others noble ways some.

Working is good but self-knowledge is also essential

Answers are there but need questions quintessential.  

Self-exploration & discovery will bring some understanding

Realization of self-grandness will step that landing.

Eyes not opening much, but pen is thrashing

Though not very strong, but urge is for brightening.

Strength the inner circle for energy nucleus creation,

That will develop life worth some mention.

Aloofness of self and heaviness of brain,

Create all hindrances in way of train.

Clarity is required and there are ways for them

Birds' chirping are there and company of men.

Raise heights consistently in direction of progress,

Do away all  blockages and lowliness of clash.

Use right words in appropriate places

Constancy of thoughts' train for best in pages.

Poetry is easy, provided mind is supporting

Goddess of learning Saraswati may help in lifting.

That craft will come with her blessings' ray

Pen will automatically flow and creativity will play.

Courage to lift pen and contriving to add words,

Not stopping at early failures, and paucity of words.

Move on till some perfection finds way

Then failures will be few, and success will stay.

No problem to find definite theme of writing

Much wavering remains in product, so have good citing.

Who will listen to sermons, if you are not suave?

Be firm in mind's purpose and not just love.

Try –try-try and find ways to do good

Don’t stop in the way till you reach the wood.
