Body Shakes, Even If One Doesn't Shake! Poem by Ramesh T A

Day by day pain of one kind or other affects one
When age increases year after year sans fail sure;
Along with old diseases too catch one unaware and
Pain of one kind or other regularly affects one!

Sans pain killer medicine, getting sleep is not
Possible for many every night apart from nightmare;
If there is no pain, gas problem develops over night
Before day dawns to feel a calm mind sure or not!

If head ache and tooth ache are controlled by some
Medicine, leg pain or joint pain starts making one
Restless all through the night due to cold weather
Or some crack developed at the foot due to dry skin!

One may have high spirit to be confident to go anywhere
And do anything, but sans sound body one can't do any
Thing for sure as spirit is only a prisoner of body;
Even if one doesn't shake, one's body shakes in pain!
