Selfie Poem by Bharati Nayak
Selfie
I selfie
To capture my image
Capture with me
My loved ones
My surroundings
The tree, temple, palace and sea
To capture
Who are
With me at the moment
As the moment
Will slip away
In the next moment
It will be past.
The tree will not come back
To me where I reclined
In that moment
For support
Got the shade
Got the cool oxygen
I want to capture
The flower
Whose fragrance and beauty
Enchanted me
I want to capture
The beauty of the birds
Who fly making a 'V' sign under
The clouds so dark
I want to capture with me
The blue waves of the sea
The waves that rise and fall
With my emotions
I want to hold
In my camera
The cool moon
The warm sun
The green grass
The mother earth
Everything I love
Seen and unseen
And wait to see and hold
All the blessings of God.
You have put across the 'selfie' moment quite beautifully. Thanks. I am tempted to quote: As the moment / will slip away / In the next moment / It will be past /....And wait to see and hold / All the blessings of God.
Thank you very much for reading and commenting on my poems.In my view Selfie is also like a piece of art.like poetry through which we capture our moments.
Selfie is about pics...poetry is about the emotion associated with feelings........you have balanced this two in your amazing lines...
Beautiful, atlast the poet is settled with his own name and earns a recognition in the society to live by herself in her changed address. Loved reading.
well written poem. Truly captures the vivid imagery being painted
I came across with this poem in Bri Showcase. This is a wonderful poem emanating from a delicate poetic heart! You have put it in a very realist manner. Loved the expression: ‘To capture/Who are /With me at the moment/As the moment/Will slip away/In the next moment/It will be past”. Thanks for sharing!
