In the evenings..




In evenings, when emote is but a whisper



Take me in your arms and tell me “I’m there”



To cajole me in the twilight of my grumbles



To make landmarks of my fantasies



And be all but fantasy in itself.





Oh but for such a presence, of omnipresent dreams,



Never shall I feel, a stranger amidst it all



For evenings shall be cozy, and nights pervade them all



Mine hand shall never be bereft, of the warmth that I seek



The heart a sudden flip flop always in its beat.





When emotions as tender as dew drops shine



And sit atop the grass of my heart divine,



Then shall they mixed in elements so be,



That for ‘Me’ and ‘Thou’ there no place actually be...

I always re- read your poetry. There are so many layers to be unraveled.

Your writing is like that waft of Jasmine.

What a beautiful piece...

Like purba says, there are many layers to be unraveled. Am sure, every time i re-read it, I am going to take home something new.

Great job!

depalan said...

decent effort
A query: i am bad at spelling but was the mistake in 'Devine' intentional? If it is then is it an attempt to indianise divine..."devi"ne? i find that worldplay rather interesting
