REPLY TO THE QUERY

Many a friends of mine queried
All these poems ' exactly who wrote'

I feel happy and a little satisfied
Like a kid I concluded 'It wasn't so bad'

Written poems are an array of words
Syntax determined by life's beats

We all speak a common language
Similar are our burdens and baggage

We are all members of a family
Travelers destined for the same journey

Alas! But few heeds to their heart beats
The dry wind has shattered soul to pieces

I tried putting the pieces together
Saw the smiling face of Tagore

We are all poets by birth
But are so busy, even for a breath

Stay back for a while
The mind will surely reveal

A little rose blooming out of own efforts
Is sweater than the garden of experts.
