WHY WAS HE BORN ?

WHY WAS HE BORN ?

A Poem by Mahesh Chand Sharma
"

The poem is about a new born baby who is born unwanted,remains uncared.He finds his like soul mate in the form of his alienated grandmother.

"
Why was he born? You never know .
How was he born, may someone know,
he just slipped from mother's womb,
from nursing hands onto the grandma's tomb!
 
Why was he born? No one knows
just by the slightest click, onto the earth.
No noise,no chaos,no lightening,no brightening,
no jingle bells,not like a fairy tale,just like a hurry mail!

And he was born quietly with only a few faces smiling,
while many others groaning and some others growling,
There was no giggle but a wriggle on many faces,
repeating the similar faces,
why was he born,if it is known?

But he was born,born with a bond
either you fill it or burn it.
not kidding,it was an entry form,
his proof of human form
that was there on his own

Requisition was to fill the form,
mentioning whom he was born,
who was his own in this world unknown,
the darker side of his own,was clearly shone,
no one came to fill the form,
no one called him his own.

Neither father nor mother came up to his tone
just an old day a beautiful little boldie
with trembling hands came to his hallo,
 picked him up,filled the form,called her own.

no one is yours,  no one is mine 
i am alone,   not you are 
I was succourless,   not you are
one and one makes two for all
but you and i make it a ball.

He had found his clone,to call his own,
no wonder why he was born?
Just to fill the void of someone alone,
that was none but his own.
