The Stone -01 Poem by Subhas Chandra Chakra

The Stone -01

Rating: 5.0


I was born
Out of vigorous melting
Followed by
A very slowcooling
In those igneous moments.

I was born large
A large body,
A larger mass,
But a little mind
And a much narrower heart
Albeit little did I know
Of conflicts, collisionsand
About wars, confrontations
Nor ofcollaborations.

Millennia of moments passed...

There was the Sun in the day
Heating me up,
There was the Moon at night
Cooling me down.
Then there was the downpour
Heavily wetting me with,
And the dry air althrough
Sucking my blood off-

Each in its turn forced me
Split into a state of
Smaller dimension
But greater mobility.

Now it was the moment
To roll down and stroll ahead
Albeit away from home and
My known, safe homeland
For an unknown future.
