As We Saw

We saw a broken egg-shell,

lying vacant on a gray , hot , paved road.

Some screamed out - ' Wastage!' ;

Some murmured - 'Purpose served !' .

Some said , " Let's dig a bit deeper , 

Let's think a bit more  !"

Some shunned,

saying ," Eh! Nasty gore! " .

I said ," Its all about 'Time' "  !!

We all see things differently in life....is it garbage? Is it something useful, something beautiful? It's all about perception, isn't it? As far as the last line of your poem goes, indeed, EVERYTHING leads back to time. Much to ponder here, Anand! Lydi**

[Anand Sehgal]

yes Lydi, time wins in the end :)

See what comes of it for there just might be a deeper meaning or another course of action altogether we are unaware of right now. Why make brash decisions, allow time to "take it's time."

Nice little puzzle poem here my friend. Defintely promotes thought in me.

[Anand Sehgal]

thank you so much for reading :)

Provoking poem here, at least from what I gather...listen to yourself, not others. Only time can tell what will happen. Thanks for sharing.

In other words... "Get to it"... stop procrastinating!
That's my perception... and I'm sticking to it! ;)

Interesting piece, my friend. I think that the overall metaphor here speaks quite loudly. There are always voices in the background, but our own voice is the one that matters the most. Clever write.

[Anand Sehgal]

correct.! another aspect that I wanted to tell is that "time" has the final call. Time is the only "scale" for all the events
