ritty patnaik - acceptance

accept all,
that life gives
in playfull mood.
sign on its tears,
on its blood.
accept the love,
and also the scar with it.

while climbing,
the ladder of dreams
i have fallen
many a times
accepting,

i have stopped sometimes
midway,
held on to dear life,
not letting it escape
from my embrace.

i know it has to go,
still i accept.it
with equanimity.
