Last Voyage And Afterthought Poem by GOBINDA SAHOO

Last Voyage And Afterthought

Rating: 5.0


Scuttling and toiling
Day and night,
To gratify appetite-
of body and mind
Longing for matters,
not for self but
to ease other's eyes
And sometimes envy-provoking.
Thanks God
I lay here in peace amid matters
After little journey from
living mother's lap
to the moving earth's.
Many have come to bid adieu
As respect last
Now that I can feel and see-
some grieved really in flooded eyes
Some in crocodile tears
some with strong dam
In custody, the river in spate
consoling my hearts and livers
For facing veracity-
ultimate fate, the truth.
Now that for me
Happiness is not contentment
Sorrow grief.
Everything now
Cooler, brighter and profound
Shadows turning illumination
Arrogance love,
Knowledge transforming to wisdom.
