Dr Jernail S Aanand / India - TWISTERS (Poem)

 

TWISTERS 

Jernail S Aanand 

Only the flower knew 
It  twisted it's features
When thorns pressed hard 
And for innocents 
They were smiles.

When mother said lullabies
Who knows from where
She summoned 
Sweetness in her voice 
And suckling milk in her breast?

I saw the birds who sang 
And the animals 
Who were silent 
There was no wisdom 
It was only pain, expressed or suppressed.

Sweet faces were tortured 
With smiles 
Hastened by lipsticks 
Torn by hunger 
Dead to all sense of loss.
