I'm a soldierA Poem by Oscar pongo
Who is this soul ? Off to conquer my unending arms
asked the skies Who is this soul ? Striving to blend in me valiantly Asked the forest Who is this soul ? Withstanding my realm Asked the desert Who is this soul ? Duelling with shivers all the way from hell Asked the glaciers Who is this soul ? Patrolling me even in wee hours mutely Asked the ocean " I am the one " roared a man , yes, I dare to conquer the mighty skies to blend in the murky forest to withstand the scorching desert to duel with the dynamic glaciers to patrol the gleaming oceans For i am a Soldier I shed sweat in peace, Tears in solitude and blood in war Folks gets me wrong I dont march to invade, I march to protect my abode I too am a human with feelings I also miss my old mother ' s delicacies I also miss my little sister's funny faces I also miss my father's behind the back pat I also miss my and brother's gruelling match I also miss my wife's warm embrace I also miss my children 's birthdays Yet , I stand there with a smile on face For i m a Soldier, Till my senses are dazed !! I dont long for shiny medals and tempting awards Oh dear Countrymen ,I yearn for ur sound sleep A delightful life full of feast and treats Worry not,i am there to confront any evil beast For i m a Soldier always on duty I lived as a Soldier I died as a Soldier Keep me alive in your heart and lives For a girl is waiting for me whom i took as my wife. ------------Aayush------------------- © 2024 Oscar pongo |
