Manohar Bhatia Hello,
This fictional poem was written a long time back,when my late wife was alive,but I thought it was time to share it with my members.
For those of you,who might be interested in knowing my wife,Shoba Bhatia,please click on my friends'list on Shoba Bhatia and read her profile.She was a former member of ryze for some years.Thanks.

I see my clock on the wall
Saying tick,tick,tick,
You talk or don't talk,
My clock is ticking,
Tick, Tick, Tick.

Far, far, away,
In the deep oceans,
There are mighty tides,
Just as a small tide,
in my affairs.

My clock has no emotions,
but gives powerful message
of time we spent to-gather
in pursuit of love,friendships
courtships,events,happenings.

I know I have done wrong,
whence your anger knows no bounds,
only tell me the reason
of your hounding,bypassing,ignoring,
and not talking to me.

Oh! my beloved,
we can always sit calmly,
and talk things over,
to forgive,forget, and
turnover new life,of trust,love,care.

Life is far too short
to brood over,sulk,sink,
into mental turmoil,pain,depression,
'cause,my clock is ticking,
tick, tick, tick!

I kneel before you,cautioning,
You, me, everything
will be consumed
by the sound of
tick, tick, tick!

Only my clock,
will remain on the wall,
Deaf,dumb,muted,and balanced
but, still warning, sounding,
Tick! Tick! Tick!

---The End----
