When Hope and Realism meet and chat

Hello there!, Realism
What is with the flaunting name
Aren’t you merely Pragmatism
Whose taunting makes us tame

Oh! Hello Hope
Aren’t you ‘Daydream’ when drunk?
Hopeless romantic on a dope
You give a high and then we flunk

Ah, I see that Realism!
At least I have my friend faith
You kill joy and bring skepticism
Reduce jovial bodies to wraith

You got it all wrong, Hope
I got all my forecasts right
Your goals are out of scope
A culprit in every hindsight!

Realism! I give dreams
Eclipsing your calculations
I always extend extremes
With boundless imaginations!

Hope! When it is no longer glee
Dreams go and you are in pain
Cross the schism and meet me
And I hope, it won’t go in wane

Blessings of the dawn

The glory of the magnificent full moon
Is meeting the first ray of the rising sun
The dark nights are long over my friend
Come out of your misery and gloom

See the optimism in this beautiful dawn
As the calming blue fades into the red
The white giant of the night bids adieu
And calls upon the stage the bright crown

The radiant night is greeting the precocious spark
Don’t be trapped in memories of the dark
Come out, start afresh, and join the jubilation
The time isn’t for sorrow, but for rejuvenation

The Flying Lantern

We were destined to go together
But you just left me
Standing alone
On the
Field

Gravity, the force of our love
Battled against the odds
But the cruel hot air
Prevailed

I could see you glitter in a distance
Maybe you had found solace
I managed a smile

The spark of my soul headed to the stars
With shreds of bittersweet memories
I wandered in search
Of myself
