Only abnormality is incapacity to love, unable to feel/see good in others.
Majority of population in any country is mentally normal(genetically and physically). Sane and intelligent enough to judge between right and wrong. Smart enough to judge between good and bad. But with increase in crime, family dramas, scams it seems that things are not even near to normal. Something is really wrong with people. It feels like generation by generation the genes of abnormality are becoming more dominant and Normal human genes are getting repressed.
Line between a Normal and an Abnormal is becoming very thin....and the in the contrary abnormal ones seems to be behaving in normal and cordial ways.
normal talks
even not normal
are his walks
queer thoughts
he projects
usual things
he rejects.
His version of brain
is labeled as, Low
Execution of instructions
are also slow
But the smile he smiles
is bereaved of bugs
Things he transmits
is lots of Love
and lovely hugs.
Pure like a child
a baby at his heart
He's uniquely intelligent
and uncommonly smart.
All these features
looks so normal
nothing anomalous
suspicious or abnormal.
Fact is:
We all perform too normal
ingenious, over-smart
May be phenomenal
but equally paranormal
Far beyond something
Which one can call
absolutely "Normal".

Hi Jyoti,
ReplyDeleteA very sensitively written poem. Yes, we all function abnormally going by the standards of indifference that we have in society.
Keep writing more on such topics.
"Far beyond something
ReplyDeleteWhich one can call
absolutely "Normal"
Absolutely correct - rarely taken up subject and very well presented - Good wishes
We all perform too normal
ReplyDeleteingenious, over-smart
May be phenomenal
but equally paranormal
Far beyond something
Which one can call
absolutely "Normal".

ReplyDeleteYour sensitivity is excellent.Jyoti ji.
ReplyDeleteMay God bless you.
sensitive and touching
ReplyDeleteMore than touching, I'd label this piece as striking. Words chosen made it lucid.
ReplyDeleteA very sensitive portrayal....
ReplyDeleteYou made me cry... I hate you! This one was a masterpiece! but I still hate you! :)
ReplyDeleteI am gonna be away from blogging Jyo. I have some imp things to concentrate on at this point of time. We can keep in touch thru Facebook.. what's your page?? Link for mine is http://www.facebook.com/pages/PumpLicious/185996451445280. :)
beautifully done
ReplyDeleteA good narration on contrasts (of) and contrary human behaviour.....one should always be careful about the deception!As you can not necessarily guess the content of any book be merely seeing its cover you cant similarly judge a man by observing his face and apparent behaviour only!
ReplyDelete....one has to delve deep into a person to behold the world hidden inside .
The curve of normal vs abnormal is bell shaped .Most of the people in a population are of av .intelligence .A small minority is extra -ordinarily intelligent and small minority mentally ill or retarded .So are the number of rich and poor .Majority is with an av .income .small minority is billionaire,and the same number of people are absolute beggars .yet we try to over smart and overtake others .Good post .
ReplyDeleteHey didn't get any reply of yours...

ReplyDeletePeace, Nico
Very touching....wonderful
ReplyDeletebeautiful and touching creation excellent.....Jyoti ji
ReplyDeletewow...great words...it touched my heart...our problem is in understanding the definition of words like normal and intelligence...these beautiful minds are unique, normal and intelligent in their own way...
ReplyDeleteDeep and thinking poem.
ReplyDeleteWell observed the perspective of being abnormal among normal. So true, the behavior pattern in and out differentiates, but being cautious is very important that it never affect others. Being true even the behavior is not good will do much than being concealed person with ill mind.
ReplyDeleteNice write up Jyoti!
Nice and well-written!
ReplyDeletetouching and sensitive expressions....
ReplyDeleteTouchy Thoughts.....

ReplyDeleteBeautifully said Jyoti. Abnormality persists in our day today life. However, I think it is not much related to genes, but, it has something to do with lack of training regarding normal behavior and organizing our selves.
ReplyDeleteThe are more normal than any normal being can be.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful thoughts.
Cheers,
Blasphemous Aesthete
Inspirational food for thought and beautifully written. The photo you chose is that visual of what you are portraying in your poem...which is brilliant. It is a reminder that the purity of the human condition can come from the most unexpected places...all you have to do is stop and look beyond your own perception of "Normal"..

Murthy.kvn.
Very sensitive and pure..
ReplyDeleteLoved it Jyoti :)
Jyoti,
ReplyDeleteYou have so rightly brought out - We, the NORMAL, persons either look down upon or just sympathize superficially with those who are physically or mentally challenged but do we ever introspect our actions as a normal person?
Take care
Touching to the core, so true each word!
ReplyDeleteAs a physically challenged person and one who can't even speak, I thank you for this post
ReplyDeleteWell what a breath of fresh air to read your blog.
ReplyDeleteI would hate to be normal I might stand out in the crowd! Keep up the good work and many thanks for visiting my latest blog fiction "My Fair Chloe" which is of course part of a series.
tears rolling down...
ReplyDeleteThank you, very much, for your comment on my blog. Your visits are appreciated.
ReplyDeleteYou write very well. You took extra efforts to have your verses rhyme at the right places. Beautiful. Am now your follower. Thanks for your visit!
ReplyDeleteWow. I would have never thought of it like that. Thanks for this window of thought you have opened up for me. I like the places my mind is visiting after reading this.
ReplyDeletethis has a great beat to it...and of course the message...there is no normal...only what some define as it...great piece...glad you stopped in...
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is any kind of 'normal' anymore.
ReplyDeleteMan is messing in the DNA and stem cells and doing all types of weird experiments now. I read recently they wanted to put a human brain into a pig. Crazy Stuff!
There is so much about ourselves we still don't know. Apparently we only use one 3rd of what our brains are capable of doing. And, those who are 'different' such a autistics are seen as abnormal, when in fact they are discovering now that each autistic child has some unique type of genius and, they also show signs of telepathy.
we always mock, or fear what we don't understand.
Great blog, so glad you came and found mine too and thanks for the lovely comment. :)
Soul Speak
A thought-provoking & sensitive write, Jyoti.
ReplyDeleteWe should never judge a book by it's cover.
Thanks for following & commenting at my blog.
I always like to return the kindness and am now your newest follower.
really nice one........ur poetry is "WISE WOMEN`S POETRY"...................
ReplyDeletekeep writing..........:)
actually purity of love depends upon the innocence of hearts and that ultimately is directly proportional to 'nascence'which is generally infected by so called "brainy class".
ReplyDeleteyour "creations" compel one to think over his own perception of life.
A very touching piece, Jyoti. Purity of heart and the generous giving of love should definitely be what is normal for all of us in this world, though it isn't always the case!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for your nice comments on my blog...I very much appreciate it...:)

So true, what passes for "normality" seems to be a quite a distance from natural. I think it has been like this throughout history...the minority is alway's mystified at what the majority agree's is an acceptable norm of what a person SHOULD be like.As if we are to be programmed!
ReplyDeleteMan is SOOO very smart that he outsmarts himself all the time!
Compassion and a warm smile win out over a high I.Q. any day. Awesome piece, Jioti. You never fail to feed your readers!
Wow...beautifully written.
ReplyDeletewell, no wonder you wanted me to come read this! thanks you...so very thoughtful and well written! :)
ReplyDeleteFinally have free time, but never fear here I won't rhyme, too much..lol.
ReplyDeleteYes this was an excellent write and so true too. There is no real normal, only what we perceive. Totally agree, things do seem to be digressing a bit with the so called "normal ones" too.
Wonderful massage is narrated through this poem ... very thoughtful ....
ReplyDeleteYour observations are absolutely right. Society is becoming more and more materialistic and self centred and good values of olden days are frowned upon. With nuclear families sprouting all over people are losing respect for elderly. Everyone wants to have the biggest, best and costliest things in order to flaunt and boast to their neighbors,friends and relatives. The rat race for supremacy over others have become paramount.Parents have no time for their children and children are left to fend for themselves. Moral values are getting eroded and TV and movies are playing a big role in this respect.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your marvelous, well thought out and beautiful poem with a very strong message.
Joseph
Read your post in both the languages. Very touching and outstanding creation !
ReplyDelete.
And we must wonder... what is normal? And what is its value?
ReplyDeleteso glad to meet you. i liked this a lot - it's very well written but what i like most is that i can feel your eyes, looking with much love to this children - and yes - what is normal and who's going to define it..?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if there are any who don’t see these powerful feelings…. But I m not sure if they know what to do with their reactions..!!
ReplyDeleteJyotes , better to be innately not normal than being normal then shamelessly doing things which are so shameful and undignified.Its nice to remain innocent and pure. As expected an excellent write up again. God bless u dear!
ReplyDeletevery true. we have made our own lives so complicated that we can't remain normal.
ReplyDeletethought provoking...

This poem is brilliant. The most common problem among man is what we perceive to be 'normal'. It's not until we read a poem like this that we realize how much we are missing.
ReplyDelete-William Leed-
So moving and written with such compassion and sensitivity. Absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post. THis poem touched my heart,
ReplyDeleteexcellent write!
Touching!

welcome,
ReplyDeletemoving words, fantastic write.
Happy Rally.
Wonderfully penned down Jyoti... The thoughts were conveyed nicely...
ReplyDeleteTouching piece.
Have a good week ahead:)
Thoughtfull and touching, thank you for sharing such wonderful words.
ReplyDeleteHey,
ReplyDeleteI love the topic
Because 'normal' is only what a person perspective of 'normal' is
:)
Excellent poem. Sometimes I think the rest of us "normals" are so distracted by our active "normal" to 'high" functioning brains, we forget the fundamentals of how to love and how to be happy. Thanks for this poem.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is a line between the normal and the abnormal. I think it all depends on what society thinks. If you don't conform to society then you are deemed abnormal.
ReplyDeleteJust look at lady gaga, she doesn't dress the way we want her to and look what we call her
a very nice write and plucks the heart string esp in light of the kids i work with, many not considered normal...i think this says much of us as a society...
ReplyDeletewow!!..tis was really awakening!.nice 2've come across tis frm ur end!!
ReplyDeleteI have nominated your for the versatile blogger award.

"Only abnormality is incapacity to love, unable to feel/see good in others" - it started here... and ended with:
ReplyDelete"...Far beyond something
Which one can call
absolutely 'Normal'..."
Oh how beautifully you weave your thoughts with your soul, Jyoti... amazed at the crisp depth you create, so flawlessly... I just feel like going down it, like through some rabbit-hole to a wonderland... very insightful and creative at the same time.
Very few people can conjure up 'bliss' with words. You are one of them. :)
