Ashtray!

A Beautiful hall Everything kept intact and Each thing arranged neatly A decorative touch by artistic hand. My attention was caught Centre of the table Where a beautiful ashtray was kept in centre of table Filled with ashes and few sticks of burnt cigarettes. Still the smoke rising out of it It seems someone was smoking and left Out the partially burnt cigarette butt on ashtray. Ashes may be of ones frustration removed Ashes may be ones anger burnt Ashes may be ones ego burnt Ashes may be someones uncontrolled habits May be of pain or sorrow or may be for fun or May be of simply nothing. A beautiful ashtray filled with ashes and burnt cigarettes butts spoke of many things. It seems that each dust of ashes wanted to tell something. Though the house looked beautiful Ashtray kept at centre of table caught my attention. Is it the ashtray Or the ash filled tray draw my attention To come up with such a poem For I am not sure! ©ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BY GEETHA JAYAKUMAR 2014 © 2014
