A spark that flares
and spreads
uncontainable
irreversible
burning yesterdays
erasing forever
the shell of memories
the cocoon of comfort
freeing todays
to long for the unknown
dream with abandon
of uncertain tomorrows
shrouded in mists
that never show
what they truly hold.

that drives to uphold
the thoughts that are behold
and solve the mystries untold
Me: The mysteries if any are hidden n the mist of tomorrow.
Thanks Maddy.
Is there an answer to my query
of what can the spark be
that will burn all our memory
of mistakes that were costly
of actions that make us guilty
leaving only that make us happy
and deliver us to a future we can’t see.
Your words have made me long for such a spark
Me: That can be said with certainty only when we encounter such a spark Govind.

Yes its all irreversible…..whatever we go thru …
how long to be in uncertainty …lovely shail…!!
Me: Yesterdays are irreversible Mythi! I hope the uncertainty will turn to whatever certainty you long for Mythi! Thank you.
And will it be enough If I say that I am at that stage now…?

Me: Ahh yes! But there is an element of uncertainty about tomorrows isn’t it?? And dream with abandon and realise them too Indy!
Beautiful! There was a sense of mystery (and passion too) to this one!
Me: Thanks Pal!
And then there are some elements whose job is to generate such sparks with horrifying outcome.
Me: Balvinder you have looked at it in an entirely new way, I am amazed……yes you are right too. Such sparks have horrifying outcomes.
As always .. poetry
Me: Aww… thanks! And I am a fan of your free flowing style!
Great poem. In those dreams alone lies the secret of the beyond. So we must all trust in them.
Me: Thanks Rhett. BTW where were you??
