I Met An Unknown Traveller In The Woods! Poem by Harindhar Reddy

I Met An Unknown Traveller In The Woods!

Rating: ★4.8


Just peace, perfect peace prevailed with ease.....
While hearing to birds singing in the breeze!
A Soul is gratified with thrill!
In the world of my fantasy - a dreams fill,
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

A man with a unique charm,
A Man with feelings warm,
A man made by character good,
Narrated me without any harm!
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

While walking through the thorny bush -
“I am in trouble head to toe, hush!
I am broken in heart and mind! Shush!
I am moved into tears”, said he in the bush!
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

'My nerves are rattling with horror,
My head is throbbing with terror,
My blood is boiling with fear,
My pulse-rate is increasiing' said he, oh dear!
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

Can I rise like a Phoenix from ashes oh dear?
Like Gandhi undid slavery in India?
Like Obama undid terrorism in America?
Like Mandela undid racism in South Africa?
I met an unknown traveller in the woods!

the unknown isnot the other man but he is the alter ego of the poet and he met with him...yes you can rise, any one rise like a phoenix or anything if they have the conviction and confidence! i like the poem for the craving of the soul of the protagonist ....thanks a lot for writing such a good poem...10++++++

Were you in an exclamatory mood? But then that's what intensifies the poem! :)
