Misunderstandings that grew

spilleronsheet

Scoldings greeted him morning 

he thought they never cared about 

in covers of scoldings 

their care was ignored 

they cheered him secretly 

coveted were their emotions 

which he never saw 

those were his parents 

who were busy making him sleep comfortably 

he awaited her return 

looking patiently at door 

she didn’t turn up 

he took it as a betrayal

he never knew she met an accident 

Lying unconscious 

battling with life 

Misunderstandings grew as a sprout 

He awaited a bonus 

it was a festival around 

didn’t get a bonus, no gift around 

but he never knew his colleague lost a job 

Grievances arose as a sprout

while driving on roads 

he met an accident 

he blamed his misfortunes 

his car got tampered 

but he went without scratches 

while the other car lost lives around 

Only financial burden he saw 

misconceptions and misunderstandings 

became his words 

never did he knew 

God  was protecting him 

with his angels around 

Somewhere 

someone 

was more misfortunate around

      Hello. I believe in angels too . Nicely expressed poem. Although some may be worse off than some I think it is hard to compare . But I believe we all deserve the good . And if you are unhappy regarding a situation and it is creating pain then that is valid . Because your the one is living in it .

        That’s true little dove…and I hope universe blesses all…gives us the strength to fight all odds and help us accept what we get

        Yes, sometimes you should just thank your lucky stars and the angels amongst them.
