Moments

by Sharbaaniranjan Kundu

Moments are so potent.
It can breed destruction.
It can start a birth.
It can instill love.
It can spark hatred.
A thought can lead to invention.
It can make a man lofty.

Who controls the moments?
Who instills the sperm
of creation and destruction?

Man, you are looking for the moment of creation:
The Big Bang!

To me, every moment is so potent,
I shall never look for the moment of creation,
for I shall never imagine playing God.

I am so small!
Let me wipe some tears.
Let me instill a smile.
Let me be kind.

Every moment is so precious.
Let me use this moment well.

Oh thanks, Rupradha M, shall I say the most prolific poet in boloji.com, writing on relations, love, passion, et al. I am curious to know whether you read Baalglaa poetry, as I edit and publish two Baanglaa poetry magazines from Delhi. Thanks again. - S R Kundu
