The Stone- 03 Poem by Subhas Chandra Chakra

The Stone- 03

Rating: 5.0


I was igneous
In the beginning.
Hard,
Black,
Rigid,
Inert,
Floor to many forms-
Landscapes,
Mountains-
Skyscraping and gigantic.

Then there were the streams
Emerging out of me,
Feeding the rivers
Piercing through my heart
Carrying messages of life
Through those inert and dumb
Valleys of silence,
And Timeless existence.

There was a spark of lust
In the fish eyed Nature.
Creations, procreations
Went on and on.
I regained my sense only
To watch densest of forests
Over crowding me and
Flocks of Birds and Animals
Dwelling, feasting and
Partying on my lap.

I was the shore for the
Waves of the sea of events
To dash upon me
In the ages to follow.

Then there were the streams Emerging out of me, Feeding the rivers Piercing through my heart Carrying messages of life Through those inert and dumb Valleys of silence, And Timeless existence. Highly impressive line....10 for this beautiful poem. Thanks for sharing it.

Feels like a video recorder was placed some where during those primordial das.. I know I understand poetry too less.. but I am thrilled at reading it..If it is poetry, then people can consider me to be a lover of poetry. Do n't know why I am drawn attracted to this kind of poems.. Thanks Subhas, However for keeping it up, Subhas. Gratefully yours, Neetu.
