THIS WORLD IS NOT MADE OF GLASS
I USED TO FEEL THAT
THIS WORLD IS MADE OF GLASS
AND PEOPLE ARE MADE OF STONES
I AM MERELY A PIECE OF A STONE
CONTROLLED BY SILICON CHIPS
MOVING AIMLESS TILL I MET
A SWEET ANGEL ON INTERNET
SHE SHOWED ME THE LIGHT
MADE ME REALIZE MY ROLE
INSPIRED ME TO WRITE POETRY
POETRY WHICH CAN SPREAD
THE MESSAGE OF LOVE .
WHICH CAN MAKE PEOPLE SMILE
WHICH CAN MAKE PEOPLE THINK
SHE MADE ME REALIZE
THAT I AM NOT A STONE
THERE LIES A PIECE OF FLESH
WITHIN ME WHICH BEATS
NOW I BELIEVE THAT
THIS WORLD IS NOT MADE OF GLASS
THIS IS MADE OF SMILES AND TEARS
THIS IS MADE OF HUGGS AND KISSES
THIS IS MADE OF LOVE AND JOYS
THIS WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL
THIS WORLD IS BIG FAMILY
I LOVE MY WHOLE FAMILY
AS I HAVE REALIZED THAT
FOR SELF IS A SEA
BOUNDLESS AND MEASURELESS
(Written for Follow the dream challenge pharse
'The World is Made of Glass'
and Any FORM Goes Challenge
Phrase: 'for self is a sea boundless and measureless', a quote from Kahlil Gibrans's book The Prophet.
(Though all my poems are dedicated to that sweet angel still I dedicate this poem specially to her. Jenny Smith was my first friend on internet and she became my inspiration on very first chat. Though we chat only thrice and that too for five minutes each. But those fifteen minutes change my life. Though I wrote poems earlier too, but she changed my vision. She left the net due to her personal problems but I feel she was a God sent angel for me. I miss her a lot and will ever wait for her comeback and will keep writing poems to keep my promise which I made to her.)
