The Plane
I’ve been running
As fast as I could
Trying to keep pace
As much as I could
Gasping for air
Clutching at my lungs
Ignoring my bruises
Just trying to keep pace
With the world
For years together
I’ve just been
Running
But I could not pace along
Could never take off
Was left behind
Alone, Panting
Defeated
Now I run no more
I walk no more
Niether do I stand
I’ve been sitting ever since
Just sitting (and waiting?)
For what? A Miracle?
Another dream of a miracle?
No thank you
I just sit ’cause I like to
Its comfy in here
Cool shady hangar
I have visitors sometimes
Some I know some I not
They come over and try
To scrutinise and judge
Marvel, perhaps mock
at the plane..
That never took off

My God you ran after a plane and almost nearly caught it, Was it Air India Express, :-)))))?
ohh dear…..cheer up! not every plane that takes off lands smoothly SO it is not necessary to take off. take the road route…..who knows you reach the destination faster!? The bottom line is that there is route for everyone - some ride easy and for some it is tough.
Am sure da plane wont ”HANGARound” for too looong, am sure it will start crawling soon and fly off even faster!!!!!!
Keep Flying…Keep Writing!!!!!!
I agree with Jim…
that’’s plain and simple, very very vivid, this plane!
really beautiful … it is one of the life’’s stories applicable every one in some stage or the other !
Nice poem. Was it penned down during a flight delay or some other torture that the domestic airlines put our very own WoW thru?
ahhh.. nice one … pingu shall cry
why is this post under the category bad shit???
Eventually, you”ll find out that it is the wind beneath your own wings that will make you soar. It’’s just an illusion that others will help us fly.
i can feel the sadness here…cheer up dear…patience does pay and the plane would definetely fly high….take care
ooooooooooooooh ant anT aNT ANT!!!!!!!! watchama kin I say cept boooooooooooootiful. Who knows there”ll be someone coming along and once again you will fly as graceful as ever -
Aye yam velly velly imbressed - see what BeeKar days to to you :)))))))))))))))))
nice thoughts Antz, take a flight!
The plane should keep heart. Afterall good things come to those who wait. One day the plane shall really soar very high
wonderful imagination…. the initial few lines of the poem made me think that you are gonna talk something about human life… the fast paced world that keeps us on tenterhooks, that keeps us running. And the Topic of the poem too did not help me get a clear idea. But as the poem proceeded, i understood things and a smile lit up my face… Nice poem as usual. I enjoyed reading it as usual. Keep writing dear
