Poetry: Nature Calls

Dr. Archan Mehta

What should I do?

In the end, they became very poor.

Many people

He showed me the door:

They introduced me

By stereotype

“Starving Artist”

Who will die?

With unclear gaps

Taken down

Anonymous Gravestone

No family relationship

At a solemn funeral

Perform the last rites.

Anyway, many times

Have I had a dream?

A better way is to

To make money

The sun

Still basking in the hay,

But nothing worked

Look, for me.

And I

Fall into extreme poverty:

But I still tried.

My business skills,

Instead, I felt dizzy.

Not cash,

And discovered

Small business

Not my calling:

I went for a walk

In the forest,

And I

Away from the blues.

Looking for luck

Embracing nature

I

A fork in the road,

And I decided to lie

Down for a while

Under the shade

And noise

A few bumblebees.

And when I woke up,

I found the answer

Those vague, lazy clouds,

The noise of civilization

I thought it was too loud:

In the silence of nature

I found my soul

And the heart,

And be thankful for the good

Lord, I

Can be made

A whole new start.
