Tick - Tock, Tick - Tock Poem by Amitava Sur
Tick - Tock, Tick - Tock
Tick -tock, tick - tock
==================
Tick - tock, tick - tock
Time is ticking out.
In mother's lap sucking breast
No tension - safest nest.
Child hood - with paper boat
Schooling - eating sleep after play,
Youth came - love lust
Marriage - life is fast.
Oa Oa - baby came
Grinding life - run fast.
Blood cools - humped back
Good days - now history and is past.
Bones get porous
Eye sight is blurred.
Thick lens - with pair of crutch
Rough skins -with wrinkle and spots.
Winter creeps in
Dry leaves are shedding down.
Journey for last rite
Ends in a pyre in flame,
With a gust of ashes - dark
Bellowing - in the endless sky.
Tick - tock, tick - tock
Time has ticked out.
