Sleepless State Of Life! Poem by Ramesh T A

The tussle between heat and cold feeling making me unable to sleep in night
Unless I fully cover myself with blanket to settle cold effect for normal feel;
Otherwise, where is the sleep for the one who thinks much and creates wise?
It is like the ant caught between the fire and the flood in the world life ever!

Sans good sleep, how can the body recoup itself for the next day to deal all with?
Sleep only balances body normality for facing daily chores with brisk pace sure;
Otherwise, only drowsiness engulfs whole self again in unsettled state all day long;
Good food, sleep, work and love in life are basic necessities for all to live well!

All in a hurry when the whole world goes on competition for all sleep disappears;
Whether we are in dreams or in reality, nobody knows nowadays in modern world;
Waking or sleeping, we are always thinking, planning, imagining and living in wakeful sleep;
Delirium soon engulfs one to fall down with bedridden state ever till recovery one day!

When that joyful dawn day will come is not in our hands in this fast modern world;
For the sake of progress, we have lost peace and love in comfort we read in stories!
