THE SPACE-WALKER
Copyright @ 2019, Gautam Maitra
Floating away into the unknown,
Towards the kingdom of the lord,
A comet lights up its infinite tail,
A few stray stars drop dead,
Into the vacuum of a fathomless sea
Here thou art, singing swan-songs of life.
Explorers of life on a space mission,
Hunting for life, breaking barriers of space,
Carrying those earthly memories.
Now, that feels like distant dreams, emitting
The fragrance of earthy smell.
Mind clouds with a sense of disbelief -
That they ever lived on that gorgeous planet,
So full of life and splendour, called earth!
Those wars and fights for changing boundaries,
The greed for a piece of earth space,
Appear so funny, sitting here on the lap of infinity!
Explorers of life on a space mission
Hunting for a drop of life in the ocean,
Stare at the infinity
Where time never moved.
In this hysteria of the frozen time,
Neither Life nor death makes any sense.
Here thou art, singing swan-songs of life,
Floating away into the fathomless time,
Towards the kingdom of God.
