The Time's broom



The Time’s broom
The choices we make, the fate we face
The people we love, the things -which we get attached with
The aphorisms we contemplate, the principles we lay down
The things which we do, the objects we hate,
The fights, the vehemence, the gentleness the humility,
The qualities, the brevity,
The heart, the mind, the ego, the identity, the existence;
Everything seems to be so futile, so weak, so small, so inconspicuous;
The ‘Time’ pervades through all.

‘Time’ – all pervading Time.
The ‘Time’ itself is timeless, yet it is on Time.
The ‘Time’ cherishes the virtue of ‘Permanency’;
The ‘Time’ is its own ‘nourisher’ The ‘Time’ is inevitable

It is a great friend, it is greatest amongst the foes,
In its womb lies the secret of destiny, In its Heart uproars the Great mutiny,
Its lust exists to befall the legends whom it woes. It is the witness to our Heart’s deep groves

It sees you rise and fall, It sees you good and bad, It sees you love and hate
It sees you closely, every moment; it’s always with you, yet absent,
To some it appears vehement, to some- like a moon’s crescent;
Lit with an intellect radiant
It witnesses you naked, yet its nature is decent…
It exists because it is transcendent
It makes your heart beat, Beat in a rhythm unknown

It makes your mind fall in lust,
It makes the mortals rise to the skies and; And then it makes them fall to dust.
It is so robust
Sometimes I feel, it has set itself to destroy the Earth’s crust!

I wonder, we chase it everywhere…
Yet, we fail to experience it in the ‘Present’
Watch out, it is there with us every moment…
With us it dwells gently,
Teaching us the nature of life benevolently

So that we derive our energy from ‘That’ Entity, When our foes attack us vehemently
Look, See the Immortal Time, In those sunlit, Heart soothing Mornings
Can you See it’s beauty,
It dwells in the smiles of the unseen Infinity,

Oh dear, Beloved, Why does your Heart not try?
Oh Beloved, Why do in its race you too try?
Leave it. You will be forced to cry…
Has it ever touched your Heart
Look the seasons have changed, Gone are those clouds, when it rained,
Past is the time of that winter chilled, Because ‘Time wants to show the Summers ‘dried’
So that you await those rains
So that in your longing, You remember ‘Him’,
Him, Yes ‘He’ is the ‘Time’, You better Thank ‘Him’

But you tried to chase Him in Disgust, You! you tried to defeat Him,
Though He helped you every moment, in the dried sands and in the sour grapes,
You failed to understand its Great Steps.
Be vigilant now, at-least, when It stands before, at your doorsteps,
with Its vehemence and war-time Wardrobe.
And Brother, now… Now!
Now you attempt to stop, the taken Step,
You remind Him of your Love, of your attachments in depth,
You plead before Him, for your bonds and the seek pardon for the bygones.
With Mercy when it Looks at You, With benevolence when He Loves you,
You again forget Him, Lost in your Pride Vain,
You try to rise again to defeat ‘His Great Reign’
Why don’t you understand its not about the Race with Him,
Listen My friend, it tries to teach you something, At-least now learn to trust Him

For, like Trust his nature is ‘Transcendence’
(Time) He expects your Remembrance
For His Universality, In its Solitude
He exists amongst us, in the midst of mankind to what we know as ‘Time’
Understand Without ‘It’ Your Life is futile,
Without ‘It’ you do not exist,
Do you Remember, your childhood and the phase when you were born,
Its gone, yet it exist with you, in the ‘Times’ gone;

A day will come when you will meet your doom,
If Time is not respected, it will dust your memories with Its ‘Mighty Broom’.
