WAITING



Fate stands there, smiling
As pages now compiling,
Time attempts to stand still,
While men …drowning
claiming skill…
Look upon their lives,
Frowning.



Amused, God looks below,
And snatches the pulse…
The arrogance
of the “ I know”...
Reminding us indeed
That this is His show...



I listen to Him and wait..
As days go by...Storms abate.
And.. there comes Fate!
Softly, he knocks..
And I turn slowly
Reluctant ..



He knocks again
Adamant..
I open the door
Hesitant..
Swiftly,
a breeze sweeps me up
and gathers me in strong arms
I Scream:

“Assailant”!
And... I , Surrender….
Willingly….
