Cosmic Peace

Cosmic Peace I have been wondering Ever since you left us, What were your thoughts That early morn? You were silent While you lay quietly on bed. For the past few months You had learned to Resign to your fate. Your wounds were healing Yet tired was your spirit As you gave in to dependency On others for your basic needs. Much did you despise Calling out to mother and child To give you a helping hand For necessities that you wished To do yourself. Shame and embarrassment Was slowly overtaken by I Have No Choice! That morn you were to walk Once again. Mother and child freshened you And you sipped your tea Without a sound, without a word. You were a little tired As you lay back to rest, Never to wake up again. What thoughts crossed Your mind that day? We thought you were looking forward To your first footsteps that day. Or did you think My first footsteps were with my mother The second time would be crazily challenging? Or is it that granny said Don't fret, don't exhaust, I'll take you now on a heavenly journey? Did you see the divine light That forewarned you Your hour has come? Did god whisper a sweet welcome to you? Were you happy or sad to leave mother and child? Dad, did I come for once in your thoughts Or did I remain in the periphery With the earthly transactions As you transcended into the cosmic peace? I remain burdened with the bond of love. I miss your warmth As you enveloped me saying The doors of my house are always open. THIRD November 25,, 2015 Conest: A Poem Time Forgot Sponsor: Silent One
