the wind blew
the sea shores hit
those were the sounds pleasing the soul
to an uncanny silence
it was the only music to hear
along those waves travelled the worries
hitting the doors of heart inside
beating were the questions
flowing were curiosities of life
Riding the coat tails of wind
was a broken leaf
in pleasure or displeasure
carrying as the wind pleased
to the soul
who gave up
to the soul who was crazy
what thoughts hidden
what questions embroidered
pricking the skin were life’s desire
Satin the luxury thread
too expensive to sew a stitch
hemp of necessities it borrowed
covering the hopelessness
In those shades of nature
trying to find itself
singing with winds
whistling was hollow pipe
on the sails an open boat
with no passenger, boarding it tonight
The horizon that stretched
told the stories of lovers that met
long was the eyes set
finally settled by an estranged letter
the long letter
much awaited
opened with salutation inside
the eyebrows knit with worries
Eyes searching the answers for question
as they glanced by
Will it be alright
when shall reunion be announced
those were the letters
that reached late by months
carrying the news of closed one instead
the hemlines of worries were closed
the blanket of hopes stitched
the pillows of reunion formed
and the bed sheet of luxury spread
satin the dress
draped the evening
the letter arrived a bit late
the dinner beside the shore set
wind whistling and humming
the sea singing in joy
alas
what conclusion shall heart sing tonight
the letter was late
the heart missed the desired mate
alas
the worries that bordered the line
clueless in letter
the spirit had left
