Sipra's diary : Poem> "NOTHING"

  

                         Nothing ! 

       To me nothing means no-thing 

       Non-existent, absence of something.

       But the concept of nothing   has been 

       A matter of philosophical debate from ancient time.

 

       The Hindu Scriptures think it in spiritual color;  

       Which is confusing for us : the commoner!

       ‘Nothingness is the ultimate source of knowledge’!

       Beyond which nothing else remains to be known!

       Isn't it enough fussy to pitch us in confusion? 

       Like Shakespeare's Much Ado about Nothing?


       We are so much possessed by our possessions

       Home, car, credit card, cell phone: the  latest lung! 

       The view seems always vague and abstract 

       But not questionable, unless the great scientist

       Einstein, the Nobel-prize winner also supported

       And became himself a great connoisseur !


       Since then "Nothingness" achieved deeper layer,

       Ignorant or innocent gain now the passport  to shelter 

       Under the same canopy with the philosophers !
