Newly Born Baby

By Ashok Pradhan •
I am a newly born baby
Trying to swim in the vast ocean called Poetry
I can't talk,nor even stand and walk leave alone
To express myself what I want.
Yet my Mother, genius within me, inspires me
To drink and to eat so that I can think and write
A few words which may get converted in to socalled
A poem to survive in this world of creation
Being an infant, I will take time to learn the tricks
of the trade to sail myself successfully in this
glamorous world.
