Sailing Too Far

satishverma

The priest drops the child
and will go celibate.
Time to wear a cloak.

Red clover weeps in
the veil. The moon will not stay
in the waning dark.

Will I face the sun,
when you don't stand by the―
river to save the boat?

    standby witness, to the absurdity
    and two faced irrationality
    of self serving, ideologies
    is the fate
    of those who choose to see
    life in all its glory, that
    morning sunshine, bright and all encompassing
    bringing to light, the death
    the Sea threw-out
    upon our shores, in the cover of night...
    witnessing and knowing
    this too, is Nature
    this too, is living
    this too, is what awaits: the living
    eventually..
    (a great write, Guru
    love the sheer fury you imbued
    for the injustice, your Poetry
    highlights and depicts)
    thanks for sharing
