*SPLIT VISION*
It’s neither new nor unique
Which all of a sudden
Made me realize
The ultimate truth of life.
The Sun sets every evening.
Everyday I see the
Round shining, yellowish orange Ball
Seems to go down
Through the window panes.
But today, the branches
Of tree like open fingers
Have sieved the light
Of Sun reaching me.
Must be wondering-
What so special has happened
Which made me focus
Today on the broken, yet complete
Periphery of the Setting Sun.
I have read ‘Road Not Taken’
A number of times and felt
That there are always forks in life
Where we have to decide upon
Which way to go.
But Today,
It’s not one but many
Paths, that have suddenly made
themselves available
To the reach the Sun.
The mystery unfolded
The ultimate truth
Which is none but Death.
Yet we all travel different paths
To reach our destination.
Depending on each ones’ Frame of Mind
We can interpret the forged light reaching us.
Obstacles might be many
Yet the destination is one.
There is no denying the fact
That the Sun depicting the ultimate
Won’t deter from its place.
It’s we who
Have to jump, cross or side track
The hindrances to reach our aim.
Some may find
Their vision absolutely clear one moment
While it might go hazy the other.
But the Target remains there.
We, the people have
To enlarge the circle
Of our perspective and visualize
The WHOLE fragmented by temporary obstacles.
