Childhood (Regained)
Vrisen Kumar Singh
Teacher of English language
Sunbeam Bhagwanpur
Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh
(Emulated parody to Markus Natten childhood poem)
Is that today I got replenished of irrevocable loss
When I am ceaselessly being credulous
When needs and habits get in an alienated assortment of Moss
When being ignorant is a virtue, not a sin
Incessantly being a craving propensity in chaos callous: Is that today I got restored of irreparable loss
When found my words to be deprived of its Destination
Diverged, diluted being submerged in maladjusted hose
May be when people fail to understand, prefer to judge and hallucinated estimation
When being gullible is crime descended upon me
Is that today I, me, mine being defined
Being possessive and more of made me culpable of smother
Or the stifling words never left any stone unturned
Other made realise of futile wrought efforts I put
When all crave for being I got inched threw
I being naive let others judgemental amid upbraid
This child needs appurtenant entity from eclat to elan
Is that today I regained the dethroned world…
