You have disappeared
like the distant trees...
Come
near me...
Love is a child
crawling in a plot of green...
We hover alongside.
Has the sky been sprayed with gulal...
It was a night
that could make a soccer ball frolic...
As I study the sheen of a bronze Buddha,
an ikebana of laments breathe inside...
Its not that I have to show you my fondness,
yet I must script a poem...
My highs and my lows brush over the canvas
engaging a rainbow...
Eyes shrieked,
"I must have lost them!"...
One peafowl halted his search.
The air was warming up...
As I breathe my poems,
flowers take the place of bullets...
You carry my burden of yesteryears.
Dust has thickened along your folds, yet...
