Take Me Away

Take me away
from the environs
where I now stay
like in a desert
on an isolated island
far from the touch of neighbors
six feet away
Under the taps
washing hands and face.

Take me through the forests
burning and pull me
as fast as you can
let the fires scald my wings
or take a chance
how the blazes over look
the innocent me
Just take me away
to the far fold distant horizons
where in the battlefields of God I play
unknown even to Almighty
who rules beyond eternity
My infinity

Let him embalm me
if he does so wish
fry me like a fish
butcher me like a lamb
take the toll of sacrifice
as much as he can
after all I too am human
Never to live till times sunset
Or the twilight before the night

Come let’s go out and now play
Corona may never run away
till another day if not today
some day

Take me away
from the environs
where I now stay
like in a desert
on an isolated island
far from the touch of neighbours
six feet away
Under the taps
washing hands and face.

Take me through the forests
burning and pull me
as fast as you can
let the fires scald my wings
or take a chance
how the blazes over look
the innocent me
Just take me away
to the far fold distant horizons
where in the battlefields of God I play
unknown even to Almighty
who rules beyond eternity
My infinity

Let him embalm me
if he does so wish
fry me like a fish
butcher me like a lamb
take the toll of sacrifice
as much as he can
after all I too am human
Never to live till times sunset
Or the twilight before the night

Come let’s go out and now play
Corona may never run away
till another day if not today
some day
and a newer generation will be born
all know COVID 19 will also be buried
it has also not to all times married
nor born for ever
as one may say

Fly into the newer environs we may
but as for now
just take me away
today
now or any day

Time evades none
