Memorial

Watch the flight of the milk weed fluff,
A very humble effort indeed.
Wingless,
It is disallowed the crossing of borders,
And denied the owndership of the skies.
Yet it flies, carrying the seed
Cradled like an infant.


‘ Under the shade of the tree
It imagines-
Someone will rest tomorrow.’
The milk weed fluff is unaware of these lines.
In the weightlessness
Of its ignorance
It flies.


In the compassion that we show
By not calling it a bird,
It might float a bit more distance.


A  humble but valiant effort!
Where it falls,
Unknown to anyone,
A plant might stand
In memorium
Tomorrow.

(Poem written by. Veerankutty, Translated from Malayalam by Ministhy S.)

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
