Melting into Obscurity


Standing tall, all shine and beam
one lonely iceberg, none to hear it scream
Not habitual, yet to meet
rare clan, penguins - the entire fleet.

                                                                 Forced icy, forced to be cold
                                                             draws to self - just beings, bold
                                                              discover they do, they can play
                                                              but little warmth, it melts away!

Melts away, where it goes
obscure that it was; now nobody knows
earlier too big to hide
joined the water, its Mother, with pride!

                                                                  Now wiser, retracted its view
                                                     there are few that guide you, only few
                                                       As warmer water below embraces it
                                               there's nothing to silence, nothing to split!

Over with and away!


Moment alone, a day alongwith
within sometimes, a flinch, a writhe...
Cheery bloom strained out
Lucky those, who caught the sprout.

Might grown into certitude
equalled, though fair to conclude
Minute to undertake near 
hands on the wheel, away, to steer.

Curtained there aint a thing, 
in vision's limits they cling...
a word earlier hitting a blank
today uttered upon one I bank!


P.S. ...as always, in my own weird way...
