PROMPT #178

I give you the last line …

If I’m God, why do I need a bird’s eye view?

Write the remaining piece as you like, but it has to end with this line. It is okay, if the line appears more than once in the piece, in the beginning, or middle, but it has to be there at the end.

♾♾♾

I lift my joined hands in a prayer

I ask You for Your help in trouble

You the Almighty, the all powerful

You know what’s in my heart and mind

God, the all knowing, Omnipotent, Omnipresent

Before we know what’s in our thoughts, You know

Before it befalls us, it is in Your knowledge

No detail, big or small escapes Your eyes

I bring my prayers and pleas to you

It is in my prayer that I…

If I’m God, why do I need a bird’s eye view?

They said,

From above he watches our every move,

Every deed, good or bad,

Every act, conscious or unconscious,

Every truth, every lie,

Would meet its appropriate end, someday.

If I’m God, why do I need a bird’s eye view?

Swirling the world seems,

Under the canopy of thousand stars,

Like a swish off a magician’s wand,

Years seem to flow,

Yet a day seems incredibly long, sometimes,

Fossils trust their mark on indifferent ever changing sands of time.

If I’m God, why do I need a bird’s eye view?

Up an aeroplane I go,

And man appears minuscule,

From even the highest peak on Earth,

Stars appear similarly small,

A petite mother crow nurtures courage,

To win against a mighty eagle, for her offsprings.

If I’m God, why do I need a…

Oh man, you are so vain
you think you are so clever
you want redemption,
but do not pay your due

you wantonly disobeyed me
and ate the forbidden fruit
but do you think you could
if I did not want you to

you have CCTV cameras
to spy on thy neighbour
yet, the temerity to think
I don’t have technology too

I am the lord and master
as I will, so you do
If I’m God, why do I
need a bird’s eye view

Inspired by Reena’s Exploration Challenge #179 & Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Canopy

this ego of mine
trapped in a skull canopy
the braincase swelling

if i’m god, why do i need a bird’s eye view?

The balance in the ecosystem 
Was hampered by man’s deeds
The earth tried to tell us 
‘To a disaster, this leads’

From centuries its happenings 
Pandemics are trying to teach 
For us Homo sapiens here 
Learning seems out of reach 

A minuscule virus stepped in!
To handle it we dint know!
“Karma bites” nature’s saying;
“You reap what you sow”!

To the universe I bow
With prayer on my mind 
“Fill us all with healing power
You are our hope, please be kind”

“Fill us with peace, fill us with love 
Forgive us for causing you pain 
Hold us Mother Earth in your embrace
Give us a chance to nurture you again!”

Till the Sun’s on a holiday,

Tumble dry, tumble dry,

Covers, shirts, saris,

Lacking energy go in all dejected,

Rejuvenated from a steamy spray come out with energy interjected,

Covers, shirts, saris,

Take with them for a short unintended stroll,

Papers, doddles, currencies, and when the cycle ends,

An unimaginable form to their poor pals rendered.

Carelessness, absent- mindedness, impatience,

One or all it may be,

When all of them work in fine tide,

Results may be hilarious or note worthy,

So it was, when all the clothes decided to go for a spin one wintry noon,

They sneaked in their dear friend for an impromptu stroll,

It wasn’t until they came out, excited,

As if from a day out at the spa,

Their animated glare,

Accompanied by a far off faintly blare,

A sheepish grin,

In return for a text that flashed across their friend, Mr Mobile’s screen,

Before…
