A Wish Poem by C. P. Sharma

A Wish

Rating: 4.0


As stream of consciousness
Changes the course,
Its infinite dimensions arise,
When we rise above this body,
Only then, this truth we can realize.

So, you should know it well,
I am not going to die.
When I depart from the body,
In a new dimension I shall rise.

Call not the people from far away,
Let not there be any hue and cry.
I am immortal, I cannot die;
A simple funeral you should try.

Waste not the time in wailing and waiting,
A peaceful departure I would wish,
My blessings shall be with you, my dear,
You should always in life flourish.

An extremely thoughtful commentary on the last stages of a man's life and after life. You have put it very beautifully. Let us look at the following lines: I am immortal, I cannot die / A simple funeral you should try / A peaceful departure I would wish
