Waiting Poem by RAJAT GHOSH

Waiting

Rating: 5.0


Everyday everywhere everybody is waiting.
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting and waiting
With multitudes of anticipations and hopes.
A baby is born with eternal waiting to die;
Oh! What a purpose of waiting for few years!
You wait, I wait and ripens the time to meet;
Oh! If it be an eternal meeting! No, it is not so.
Religious Gurus ask everybody to wait for better:
'Don't question, no question, just wait and wait'.
We are silly Fools at the hands of wanton Time,
We're painted performers performing provisionary
The painful picture on a pitiful phenomenal stage.
Today we wail for Yesterday, and wait for Tomorrow.
Oh! Vladimir and Estragon what are you doing here?
Tomorrow will never come, and all shall understand:
Everybody is a waiter to serve here temporarily;
It is like an eternal Waiting Room in a station
To wait for next train to reach at Godot's station.
