Casket Of Dreams Poem by aryaindia india

to realize


Wading past the waters of spent yesterday
Today's murky slush of soiled clay
Edges towards a brighter silhoutte of tommorrow
That shines predominately in its shade

And there within lies my casket of dreams

Throwing care to winds of destiny that blow
Caressing the unmindful vision of futured dreams
Probing a self analysis that may unwarranted be
Life tackles brazen its own piercing scene

And there within lies my casket of dreams

Triumphant truth in all its gracious blend
Does futile attempts to rectify falsehood
Like tadpoles in rivulets that beauteous gleam
Trappings of unglorified nature in life's stream

And there within lies my casket of dreams

Surreal shades of superflous chiming sorrow
Gratify the yearning to unlimited happiness
Yet within the boudaries of earthy desire
Justification holds a threadbare conviction

And there within lies my casket of dreams

Capsuled in the depth of innermost longings
Fine streaks of despair lie embedded
Like inseparable conjoined pathetic conditions
They lurk luxuiously increasing their girth

But then too within lies my casket of dreams

Freak spins of dazzled decorum that lie
To be owned and embraced in its glorious form
Unfettered and unleashed are bold drapings
That hang from the mind's eye that is unmoving

It is then within that lies my casket of dreams
