Poem 45 : Does Everything End ?

Image
  Does Everything End ?                              - T ABRAHAM https://www.gettyimages.in/detail/illustration/confused-man-shrugging-his-shoulders-royalty-free-illustration/1132702311 Why does everything has an end ? Be it joy and happiness, Or the sorrow and sadness, As everything starts, everything ends, No sorrow forever to make us worse, To be always clouded with doubts, It is not possible, No happiness forever to let us in joy, Every taste of feeling comes, Take a pinch of it, Just like the salt in our food, Excess is a waste and so is it's absence, So make up your mind, Life has ups and downs, No permanent ups nor destructive downs, Everything has a beginning, So does it ends.

  Where Did You Go ?                             - T ABRAHAM https://www.corewalking.com/walking-and-lower-back-pain-post/ I saw you long back, A time when the flowers bloomed, A season of joy, happiness and peace, But where did you go ? It was a time of misery, sorrow and sadness, My world was in ruins, Finally, I got you back, A fortune acquired after a long struggle, Where did you go ? The voice tells, 'I didn't wander nor waver, The purpose for which I went, The fulfillment of it brought me here, To save a place is ruins, Which is far more in ruins than your world, Now I am back, Back with the same qualities, But a little amplified are they, To make you feel comfort, I will never leave you, Nor will I turn back'.

Longest Road To Nature                     - T ABRAHAM Road to the Bishop Heber Hall, Madras Christian College (Autonomous), East Tambaram, Chennai. Photo taken at 11:59 am on 04/09/2023 There are many roads that we travel by, There are many paths to walk by, This one road caught my sight, This one long road. The road that leads you to a place, Where the nature surrounds you, With flies flying, with breeze blowing, The drizzle adds joy, A joy that comes with the chillness of the drizzle, Trees on the right, trees on the left, Where loneliness is accompanied by nature, Travel through this road once, Ride a cycle or go by walk, Enjoy the beauty that nature gives, Where philosophy is taught amidst this nature, Where search of wisdom happens, This longest road to nature, Stays alive in my mind forever.
