p a noushad - GRAZING

The cow
I untied to graze,
was led to the pasture,
where the grass grows greener.
then I pulled the harness
to lead it to another pasture
which was safer I thought,
then I tried to control it,
and lead to yet another pasture
for my comfort.
Meanwhile, the cow started running.
I tried my best to check
but in vain.
I was compelled to run after it,
all my power and energy not enough
to control it as I wished.
At last, my mind was inclined to go
where the cow was leading,
My inner soul whispered:
to tether the animal
is never possible here?
Seeing all these
the sun smiles
in the milky way,
under the curved blue,
water flows forever,
cold current, hot current,
fresh water into salty water,
salty water into more salty water,
goes up as vapor,
comes down as rain,
all in the ocean,
appears and disappears,
forms and merges,
again and again ever,
I can feel now
the tug of war between between darkness and light
is continuing,
trapped in twilight,
neither does win,
so each cry has a bias to laugh,
and each laugh touches tears,
the day dawns on me,
my life is the most beautiful poem,
a classic,
the one who brings life to perfection,
is the greatest poet
the rules of a poem are
the wings of love,
truth the editor,
birth bliss tears and death
make its verses thrilling
and it keeps me
on the edge of my seat.
