Low Tide Poem by Ruta Mohapatra

Low Tide



Like a sloth bear,
Life moved, slowly, steadily,
And stood still at times.

Nothing seemed to change,
Neither the sky, nor the horizon,
Nor the tree-line!

Only the grey in the hair,
Spread from roots to the end,
From the temple to the neck;

And the skin lost its lustre,
The eyes, their sparkle,
The voice, its genre,
Till she turned into a stranger!
