A COLLAGE


When memories, painful, piercing and gnawing
continue to haunt us
giving us sleepless nights
and chains of nightmares
we wish,
if memories were like
leaves or faded petals of flowers
falling on earth
which in due course of time
turn one with the soil
bestowing us with hopes of a new dawn.
But,
when memories are
cheerful, delightful and rejoicing
our wishful thinking
of fallen leaves
and faded petals
turning one with soil
melt into thin air
bestowing us with 
enlightenment of our life
as a collage of
haunting, painful and piercing memories
cheerful, rejoicing, delightful memories
and not so sad, not so happy yesterdays.
Hence,
erasing the past events
on the whole is unthinkable.
Let haunting and gnawing
memories exist in harmony with
cheerful, delightful, rejoicing memories…….
