And Back Again……!

They were not of their kind but when the wisdom resigns they say that love is blind
Seeing the mermaid the self was left behind
New were their purpose new were the passion as new were their find
In the silence of the green the Infinity was now confined

Like an instance passed the days he was living the dreams not chased
To the passion he surrendered but the reasons were not all erased
Dreams were waiting in his boat which was anchored to the coast
Belongingness Beckons and summons the histories adore
Infinity is too vast to explore but dreams could be realized back on the shore

No one returns back from the infinity she knew
With infinity in her eye she bid him adieu
She gave him a small case which was not to open in any conditions he face
He departed her with a final embrace
Voyage of returns are never too late
The ride was fathomed but towards the unknown fate

In the story narrated maverick comes back to the shore where everything had changed neither he could recognize the place nor the people in that place were recognizing him. He could not search for his parents his relatives his friends…………..he found himself to be in a totally different place. Then he inquired about his name people said 300years ago there was a boy of this name he went for fishing in the forbidden area and never returned.

He sits near the shore and thinks of opening the box. (He had been doing all the forbidden things only after all) As soon as he opens the box he vanishes in to the thin air of infinity.

When I think of this story, I always wonder what was there in that small box that the mermaid gave to maverick. Probably the time line!

If the time line fails evolution would have been a fairytale!

Till infinity and back again

It was English class for class IV ‘B’ but the teacher was absent, Renu Jain mam took our arrangement class and she told us a story. Story of a fisherman who explores the forbidden areas of the sea. But when he returns back he discovers that he has lost everything including his identity. Ten year after, I read “old man and the sea” story of an experienced fisherman who follows the largest catch of his life. There was one thing common in the two stories they get their catch but return to the shore without them. The poems are of the same story which I heard during that arrangement class. The evolutionary and developmental aspects of the story are totally subjective to my understanding of the story which I will mention after completing the second part “and back again”

Till infinity…

There was a fisherman near the silent sea.
Maverick was his name and man of dreams was he.
Like the waves near the shore
His dreams use to soar

Dreams were his self and self was his religion
Dreams were his integrity dreams were his son
They call him mad they said he is lost
He wanted his fish from the boundaries uncrossed
He didn’t wait for the tide
In his dinky boat he took the unfathomed ride

In the infinity of blue he sailed
In his every attempt he failed
Silence of infinity, betrayal of salinity dreams were losing self’s affinity
He saw some green in the horizon
Infinity above and infinity below and the speck of green was a divine trinity
Amid of the serene he reached the green

Alone he started and alone were the dream accomplish
Many here and more there the green was full of fish

Even the triumph is transitory and the delight was about to fade
The dreams were realized but infinity still had something to persuade
