A Bit Here And A Bit There Poem by Udaya R. Tennakoon

A Bit Here And A Bit There



Get up and stand up
A bit here and a bit there
The body walks
The mind flies
Separate but together
Life lives
Hopes dry
A bit here and a bit there

The food which is cooked
Feel the taste and
Spread the smell
Inside the cave
A bit here and a bit there

Talk and listen
Cut down the meaning
Become calm and
Think in silence
Gestures and smiles
A bit here and a bit there

Dresses and styles
The rhythm and walk
Adapt and change
A bit here and a bit there
Day and night
Sun and moon
A slight difference
Darkness occupied
A bit here and a bit there

Lost home and host land
Cross mind and box building
Dreams and memories
Imaginary ghost
A bit here and a bit there

Convert and compare
Count and consume
Lock the desire and needs retire
A bit here and a bit there

Shadow of the body
Pull and push
Today tomorrow and yesterday
A bit here and a bit there

Mind curses
Heart judges
Blurred direction
A bit here and a bit there
