A Natural Fatigue Forgetfulness Is! Poem by Ramesh T A

A Natural Fatigue Forgetfulness is!

Great scientists and philosophers are noted for forgetfulness;
Not only they but we also forget many things of day-today life.
When things become usual or routine and busy we forget all;
Forgetfulness is a natural fatigue we all undergo by stress or strain.

Nothing can change that aspect of our personality in the long run;
Unless we make a note in diary or note pad, we forget many things
In the busy schedule of mechanical life in this fast material world
Whether we are damn sure or not in the society we are familiar with!

The food we ate yesterday or a few days earlier we are unsure to know;
The dress we wore three or four days before too we don't remember;
Same thing happens to what we have written down in poetry or articles;
After sometime, when some one talks of same matter, it seems new or nice!

If such things happened in the lives of Edison or Tagore or Newton, we smile;
But, if we think of our own forgetfulness of ordinary things, what can we say?
