Dummy Gods on Earth
Theme: It’s a
fact that there is no clear cut evidences on existence of GOD but we all
believe in different forms. Even though we’ve never visualized GOD directly yet
we manifest him in our day to day life. This poem is a representation of my
feelings about GOD. Who are the GODS in my life and what do they mean to me?
This poem throws some light upon some of the questions put up above.
The most
pertinent question arises
Shaking every
portion of my belief,
Resembling
the tremor evolved by an earth quake
And
separating the tectonic plates.
The crevice
is quite permanent
Formed out of
confusions,
Prejudices
and misinterpretations
On something
non-existent.
My creators-
Dummy GODS
Are my
saviors
In the land
full of danger
Insecurities
emanating fear.
My mother-a
pious figure,
Taking care
of even the minute need
Each day and
every hour
For novice
survivors.
My father- a
role model
For me,
standing upright
By my side in
the odd hours
Of darkest
turmoil.
My
teachers-concrete support,
Believing in
me
And accepting
me what I am
In my realm.
My sister- a
sweet harbinger
Of noble
thoughts,
Always
reminding of my worth
During fate’s
ugly wrath.
My relatives
are always there
For me to
shower
Their
unadulterated emotions
Filled with
unconditional love and care.
My friends –
parts and parcels
Of tiny world
where
I live and
dream
To the
fullest of it.

P.S- I
dedicate this poem whole heartedly to all those who have been a part of my
existence and without whom I can never claim to stand for my values and rights.
In a nutshell, the presented poem is an indication of my deepest gratitude for
“DUMMY GODS” of my life.
