I hate history my love.
As a school student I begin to
Learn and read history.
I grow and I know more and more.
Gradually I discover
It is romantic to know the past.
And it is really adventurous
To discover the ancient and even the
Middle ages; their society,
Their merry- making, their tragedies;
In a word their ups and downs.
For instance have at least a bird's eye
On the buried Harappa -Mohenjo-Daro
Or the Sumerian or the Babylon or the
Byzantium or Bastille or even Napoleon.
But my dear, my love hold my hand.
Mind it-I swear I hate history.
Let's water our long planted fiction.

There is romance in history- there is adventure! ! ! Yet there really is nothing new under the sun- human motives are, to put the best foot forward, ill-advised. So enjoy the fiction with your love while you may. Well-written poem.
Many many thanks susan for your judgement..... I am really happy with thee.
Beautifully written thoughts but I love history of all those sufi saints and love reading biographies of all those spiritual leaders. And I hate all the politics the history holds. Well written poem. Create your own history with love and compassion.
