Poem : Bring Back the Sun by Arun Pandit
Bring Back the Sun
Once upon a time there was a guy
LIFE ! WHAT IS LIFE?
FOR SOME IT IS AN ESCAPADE..
FOR OTHERS IT IS A FLAGELLATE
FOR SOME IT IS DIFFICULT TO GRAPPLE
FOR OTHERS IT IS A DISHABILLE BATTLE
AND FOR THOSE WHO DON’T WANT TO TAKE A CHANCE..
WOULD HAPPILY TAKE A HEGIRA OR SIT ON THE FENCE
THE GENEALOGY OF HUMANS HIGHLIGHTS THE TRUTH
THAT CRITICS HAVE A FLEET OF FOOT
ONCE A FAILURE IMPINGES YOUR LIFE
ALL YOUR NIGHTMARES AND FEARS GALVANIZE
ADDING FURTHER TO A GRISLY SURPRISE
MOST OF THE PEOPLE BESIDE YOU DURING YOUR HAPPIER TIMES
MAY MAKE YOU FEEL AMATEAUR
BY TURNING INTO A SEDITIOUS HORDE…
EVEN MAKING THE WORD NINNY TOO BOLD
THE WORD IMMOLATE MAY SEEM HOMILY AND OLD
ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD!
YOU MAY NOT FIND ANY SHADE
NOR A GLIMPSE OF CORUSCATE
AS IF ALL PATHS ARE BARD
AND YOUR WORDS ARE NOTHING BUT A CANARD
YOUR BODY AND SOUL LOOKING LIKE A HAGGARD
NO LIGHT!
NOTHING RIGHT!
AS IF YOUR LIFE IS DEPENDENT ON CHARITY AND FETES..
MAKING YOU A SLAVE OF YOUR FAILURES FIATS..
TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR FATE..
THE OEUVRE OF THE GREATS WILL GO ABATE..
SO GET UP NOW!
PUT UP A FIGHT….
THE TIME HAS COME TO FIND YOUR MIGHT!
THE COURAGE TO GET UP!
THE COURAGE TO RISE…
TO BELIEVE THAT NO MATTER WHAT COMES BY…
FAIL!FALL!CRY! EVEN DIE..
BUT DON’T GIVE UP !
DON’T RUN…
BRING BACK THE SUN….
