To Sun? ? Poem by SALINI NAIR

Need to reach the sun
So that attains the heights
Dream to roam in that hotness
So that I never burn in pyre
But the ladder is empty to that altitude
The wisdom here never attain the majesty
In this lonely hub need to go alone that way
But my feathers are not wide to stretch
My verve may decline on my expedition
My corpse will fall and soul wills persist
So that I will lose my endurance
Some way I may stick and fall to the ocean
There will sink and perish with my dreams
My dreams may whisper and sack to eternity
But my soul never withdraw to the shadows
Need to lift to the eternal daydream
I dream till the eternity ends
Can't bind its feathers to numbness
Dreams are the way to all sensation
There in that brave can grab him with all the fervor
My sheath will not burn or tear
My soul is protected inside
Some way the sun may fetch me with pity
As my verve is on the way
So that he never leave me to the shadows
At least for this night as I dream it! ! !
