A sheet of paper
And a pen,
Is all, one needs,
To tell
A story, a tale,
A poem or a fable.
It goes through numerous emotions,
And plenty of iterations,
Crumpled, torn, thrown into the bin,
It complains to none,
Goes through the process, which has begun.
The paper surrenders
To the pen holder,
The maker, the creator..
Oblivious of what would emerge…
A creation unfolds,
A tale is told,
A pattern is designed,
Words flow, designs glow…
A medium of expression,
A mode of presentation,
A canvas to an artists creation,
A peek into the writers imagination…
If the paper had inhibitions
And lacked the courage to surrender,
We wouldn’t be able to read the bestsellers,
We couldn’t have become ardent art lovers..
Let’s learn our lessons from a simple paper,
With folded hands and trust, let’s surrender,
To our maker, to our creator!!

Let us be like the simple paper that never raises its voice nor says anything but is of so much help to us. Today we can do anything with it, write books, verses, stories and what not. Yes Deepika the paper is like our God. Let us pledge to thank him for a beautiful life and surrender to Him in Love and Kindness. Superb poem. Too good.

Yes, Kamal. We often take the day to day things for granted. If we deeply think about it, we could find value in every little thing.
Thanks for your kind words 🙏

Yes Deepika I completely agree with you. Every moment in our lives we take things for granted but have never valued all of them in a thankful way. You are welcome dear.
