Peaceful Calm And Cool Poem by Hans Raj Sharma

Here goes the tale
Tale of sweetness
Ending in bitterness
Stories of encounters
Encounters face to face
But, with bullets-
From behind the back.

Fighting each
With each one
Inner and outer self
In family and polity
Club and clime
Fights of ego for ego
Goes on out of egoism.

Encounters with nature
Traditions and hues
Hues of all kind-
Infecting social system
Pious nature of man
Where: all sweetness
Sweetness is gone-
Ending in bitterness.

To all friends and foes
With love and care
Hearts and hands
Those still assist
You, me and everyone.

Saying no, saying loud
But, I go slip-
Into a sound sleep
Since, I want to be
Peaceful, calm and cool.
