A drop of water

A drop of Water
A drop of water
Sometimes fragrant tears
sometimes ecstatic dewdrop,
sometimes in fiery desire,
sometimes in passion of excess
in a kiss .
That drop of water
sucked in the thirsty earth.
years pass
Decades pass
The centuries too....
Then one fine autumn dawn
your arms full
with trembling Sephali *
with shivering dew drops
form deep inside the earth
and my heart.
some where in between
a bleeding sky
Throbs.

  1. My lovely Goddess of
    poems
    I am begging you for
    alms-
    Please give me your
    tears,
    Please give me the
    flowers,
    Please give me some
    sun,
    And take my poems in
    turn!
    May raindrops fall on
    pallet
    And make my canvas
    weep!
    The charcoal sketch on
    paper
    May turn into wash in
    water!
    With all pains and joys
    sundry
    O' Goddess I beg for your
    poetry!

    Your comment ,which is a scintillating poem in itself,injects life force inside the heart of a very old poet.
