The Journey to Blind Faith!



It started off with Nonchalance,
Hearing the rumors to Demeaning stance,
When some proofs came up, an Inquisitive-Doubt,
Strange tidings lingered all about!

Curious was the mind, hungry to know,
Truth was it or falsehood lying low?
And so it itself went to discover,
In confident camouflaging cover!

And there came the trail of Coincidence,
There were so many astonishing incidence,
That lost in their midst was my insolence,
Shattered was my undue over confidence!

And there my journey took funny swerve,
When I stood there with vigorous verve,
Under the hallowed portals of Blind Faith,
When all this while I had called it a Wraith!

And then I turned around and found,
It had always existed in some form,
For a theorem once proved was used as such,
Who's so naive to reinvent the wheel thus!

They told me that the earth was round,
They told me that was the way to count,
They told me that Science succeeds,
And all I had to do, was Believe!

Antithesis always follows, once Thesis is proposed
Unrest abounds,  till Synthesis takes hold!
None of the exams expect an answer from every book,
Then why should you demand that My Faith should?

A game of Whisper spoils the told tale,
But any can ask the narrator to narrate,
For the Source is present here always,
It's you who is looking in the wrong place!
