Postulata Poem by Pravat Kumar Mandal

POSTULATA
P. K. Mandal

Like a child I want to cry
For getting back my childly age
When fantasy was my best game.

Like a bird I want to fly
Into the sky - a vast blue page
If written there is my name.

Like a hill I want to be strong
To survive in adverse conditions
Which are enough to break the love.

Like a rose I want to blossom
To express my heart's true missions
The only aim of which is love.

Like a star I want to stare
To make the darkness shine and shine
Nothing else is invisible.

As a man I want to declare
That to be a real being
Though I know it's not possible.
