Valmiki(5) Poem by Binayakumar Mohanty

Valmiki(5)

Rating: 5.0


O' Poet
Curse not
on your earlier being
for it was a journey
towards the achievement,
attainment and enlightenment.

Curse not
on your ignorance
for it was a bliss
on the path of your progress.

Why regret!
for you 're no way
held for
for there not being
a demarcation
between light and dark
white and black
ever drawn
by any body
in the history.

Why so repentance?
why a penance?
