Death Is Deaf

Poem Artwork

On my way back home
I saw death lying wounded
Beneath the refuge of a tree
Spectators were all around
Murmuring, speculating,
And completely bemused
By this unbelievable sight
But no body dared to go
Infront of him citing malice
I stood there in the crowd
And scrutinized their emotions
Some were singing
The song of immortality
Some were chanting
The slogan of infinity
And shocked by his fragility
Some were teasing his destiny
But not a soul was there to help him
For they yearn to see him perish
Right before their miraculous eyes
I felt pity for death
I sauntered towards him
People were stunned by my act
“Stop you fool, don’t go, come back”,
They shouted like the roaring thunder
But I was not petrified by their caution
I stood right Infront of the death
Felt its pulse, carried it on my back
And marched valiantly towards my home
I nourished him, soothed his hunger
Healed his wound, gave him the company of life
Crammed him with the splendor of love
Bathed him with the water of compassion
Revealed him honestly the worth of divine life
And the difference single tree of life can make
In this vast forest of mankind
He nodded his head with appreciation
And the very next day he recovered
Completely from that lethal wound of his
But to my surprise he came lurking towards me
With an ominous countenance that startled me
He sat down beside me and whispered
My friend thank you for saving my life
May god bless you with his glory
But now it seems that you have to go with me
Shocked was I upon hearing that from him
Then I remembered, what my grand father used to say,
“Never make friendship with the merciless death
For it is deaf and hears not the request of life
To grant it few more moments, just few seconds
And let it enjoy the company of ceaseless time
And adorn its heart with the paint of fleeting desire”.

Well, you leave me quite breathless, Bhuwan!

This verse,

And shocked by his fragility

really, really struck me to the core.

This is just brilliant, splendido, magnifique!

OK, I bite. I want you as featured poet for the Fall 2004 issue of Poetry in Emotion, our general poetry E-Zine. That is the FIRST available slot I have, alas.

However, you may send me up to 25 of your poems, none longer than approx. 40 lines, as I always err on the side of brevity (as you know only too well).

You may submit your poetry to this address:

vallance22.gosympatico.ca

Please submit all the poems together in one document, in BOTH .rtf and .txt formats (i.e. 2 copies). You have plenty of time (to say the least) so don't rush yourself... though I scarcely think you will :) :) :)

PLEASE NOTE: other poets on AUTHORDEN. I do NOT accept unsolicited manuscripts. I think you can understand why.

Sincerely,

Richard Vallance,
EDITOR,
Poetry in Emotion,
CANADA

Bhuwan Thapaliya you have touched all human emotion in the very raw truths of Life and Death and mankinds ability to close their eyes to risk.
I have enjoyed your work.

Bountiful Blessings,
