Behind the Wall

by Prof. Swanti Sharma



I can see the wall through the window and the open sky this whole lot is my territory beyond this my far-sighted gaze and the drenched eyes could not see but imagine Yet I’m not a prisoner I don't belong here The square comprises the two halves, I experienced one, the other half needs to be explored. You and I together With our timid wings, ready for flight, can touch the sky and its limits If only you promise.

The window is the symbol of forming perspective, and vision of the world, staying behind the window is a kind of human limitation, and a confinement that doesn't matter what if the wings are timid,if the wealth of imagination is enough heated and fertile, as well as the company that is desirable...you can touch the ends of the sky...
The poem is deep, symbolic and quite readable...
thanks for sharing...
