Thank you – my cell phone!!

Thought of writing a poem

And scratching head for words

Imagining language jargons

Themes and inner feels

Philosophical and mundane

I closed eyes to concentrate…

The cell phone rang!

Lost the writing rhythms

And I rethought about my love

About the satiric humor

About the laughter of life

Nature, sea and spiritual

Idea came to my idle mind

Brought paper, dustbin and

Eraser with sharpened pencil…

The cell phone rang!

Devastated and saddened by

The death of my maiden attempt

Clasped the menace toy…

The cell phone!

Thank you my cell phone

For saving me from the ordeal

Of writing a poem for 'Gather'

I love you – my cell phone!!

Interessting. It also brings to light the much loved solitudes which we are missing these days due to the lightning speed with which life is moving.
