Drops!





They fall

they stay

they slip away

drip and disappear

they stain

leave mark on dust

and trace

again

again

again

ebb and flow

birth and go

of things delicate

and things hard

strong and weak

faithful and irreverent

colourful and dull

love and forsake

dismissal and embrace

and without word

or music

etches an old story:

where I came

and where I shall go

forget,

read me in this passing

that’s enough.

  1. Yes ! truly a lovely poem..... i am a bit afraid of using more words because i may harm the 'beauty of these words' due to lack of knowledge about 'poetry' and i know only 'a few words' to appreciate a lovely poem like this ......

    i like the flow .......
