Piety Eyes Poem by vijay gupta

Piety eyes
Her eyes were full of piety.
She was seeing every body one by one.
She was quiet mum.
She was lying on the bed.
Food was given to her by pipes.
She was terrified also.
She was groaning again & again.
We were helplessly seeing her.
Women were whispering about her illness.
No body was hope full for her life.
And she was in great trouble.
Her groaning was making all of us trouble some.
But we can only pray to the god
Or request the doctor to see her again.
Tears were in her eyes also
& we were hardly able to stop our tears behind the curtain.
Because we fears that she will be more restless to see our tears. Critical period of her life was going on.
Unaccountable days & nights have been passed by me with her.
From my birth to the young age our nights & days were full of Joy, cheer & hope.
Now these days are full of grief sorrows & terror of death.
I was seeing the reality of men & women, who comes to this world with cheers & goes from this world with tears.
The period of between cheers & tears is human life.
It can be short or may be some long
But the end of life is inevitable
It is the reality of human beings.
What can do?
Nothing
In the night when we were both alone
She was always on the bed & I was on the stool her eyes always teaches me the reality of life.
She was asking me not to loose confidence & on the other hand her tears were telling the real story of her that she was also going to be defeated by the death.
We both were bounded to abbey the order of the fate
Decided by the god
I was waiting for a wonder.
We did not want to loose her.
She was my mother.
