Poetry – Debanjana Ghatak

 If I could fly

I would break all barriers and rise high.
If I could flap my wings,
I would float with the clouds and find you.
If I could flutter,
I would reach up to the sky and turn its cheerless mood into beaming bright.
If I could flight,
I would be free, I would be me, no boundaries or tears.
If I could stretch my wings,
I would dance on the rainbow and drenched my soul with its hues.
If I could float in the sky,
I would wander from country to continent no one to cease me.
If I could winged,
I would discover the most aching heart and rescue him from misery.
If I could fly high,
I would participate in the most deadliest adventure and bring glory.
If I could dive in the sky,
I would make friendship with numerous feathered friends.
If I could trek in the night sky,
I would travel to different galaxies to discover new mystery.
If I could take a dip and pass through the clouds,
I would go beyond the roof and meet the One to whom my soul belongs.
Yes, I don’t have wings thus I can’t fly
But I can travel to the remotest sphere to the broadest path with my imaginary mind.
