Eternal Bliss

Eternal Bliss
Run as fast as you can….Shouted the old wizard
Aching heels and throbbing heart! she could’nt move
The weiry traveller, ,fuming brain and bleeding throat
Singing her swan song in a feeble voice ,the desert so hot!
Saw a pool ahead,bare footed pulled her heavy legs
Found no water there for it was a mirage in the desert
The wise man followed her but was calm with a smile
Pointed out a small tree with leafy branches in the wilderness
Lead her to the shadow where she lay down for a while
Narrated her miserable story to the old man ,she remained
Until the hot sun disappeared behind the red curtain
Went on with her journey ,the poor lady walked alone
Lingering memories of her good old days but faded ones
At last reached the river so wide,nobody could swim across
The ferryman was greedy , she had no money in hand
Alone she stood there in the banks of the river
Longing for another ferry to take her away
To the sweet shores far beyond the rippling river
Where she is not alone and will get the eternal bliss

To all Mothers

Mother
There lies the unconditional love
In the heart of the mother,so kind
The child loves her as she fed it
With love and care no doubt
The adolescent quarrelled always
Cursed her for she was poor
She tried to convince but in vain
After a decade she grew old
grandchild loved her for a while
As she knew endless fairy tales
Mother fell ill and was a burden
As she gave birth to a brilliant one
who was busy with his schedules
One day mother passed away
Silently she flew to the heaven

The son lamented with tears
I should have cared my mother
The wise old man in the village
Told him life is full "should haves"
