Mysterious Nature Poem by Xelam Kan™

Mysterious Nature



Across the window's pane,
in the monsoon rain,
i saw my 'lil angel' was playing with a lil kitty- Tom,
-well behaved and tame-
cut off from this vicious world;
they both were wrestling and roaming awkward.
chasing the joys and forgetting the pains.
A thunder voiced and lightening flashed
and
equally they embraced
the nature's mystery
without care or complaint; and
communicated too, sensations
in a lingo strange.
In them i found no difference at all.
how
the two be different, if
play and act on the tune same?
this bewitching scene -of course -muddled my mind and faith.
what then we are?
a specie evolved or created by lord?
Is not it confirmed
the grandeur and austerity of nature's Art,
violated by humans all?
if yes, then
let 'It' to design
-our life's plans -
of such grand scale.
So
in nature we should trust
to secure and to reform
our 'cultures' false.

JOHN, could dinesh speak in simpler language for ME, please? ? ? well, maybe i'm just too simple to understand fully with just one reading. john, i was zipping through the poem, enjoying it, when suddenly i hit the last eleven lines. then my mind started to be muddled. after reading some of those lines, i may understand them better than at first. but i have at least one question. make that TWO questions. in the sentence: if yes, then let 'It' to design -our life's plans - of such grand scale. do you mean to write to or too? thanks, by the way, for punctuation marks you used. AND does It refer to nature? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - in nature we should trust reminds me of the motto on u.s. currency and i think at least some coins: in god we trust. of course not all americans, including me, trust god. oops! here come the angels of doom to get me! hee hee and who/what is 'my lil angel'? my first thought is a human child. am i correct? thanks for sharing. :) bri p.s. i sometimes refer to Nature or Mother Nature in my poems, but i don't really believe in her either. but, as mr. nair is an agnostic, i too am; therefore i believe just about anything could be true, including the existence of god and a creation by god. dinesh leans more (a lot more i believe) towards atheism, so i don't know why he bothers to use the word agnostic in his comment.

Dear friends, please note that I add the following comment here as Mr John personally asked me to write it based on my agnostic or atheistic stand and therefore I shall not be responding to the comments made by any of you on my comment. You have to excuse me.... The mystery of Nature, if at all it appears to be there, is mere manipulation of human mind. Millions of years ago when man was not inhabiting in this planet, such things were happening.. In the vast universe there are trillions of stars and multi- trillion planets with or without anyone to brood over such things. In the nothingness of wild silence and the assumed fullness of sweet human thoughts and reactions a system is alive that is mere accidental. Mother nature or nature has its own significance as we belong to her/it. Our human mind with all its intricate thoughts, imagination and ambivalent interpretations are tempted however, to see much in it and so are these poetic queries accelerated by obvious uncertainty or predicament of response much induced. I still appreciate your poem Mr John for its authentic charm
