The Ultimate Cove Poem by Seema Jayaraman
The Ultimate Cove
Through murky waters I wade
It beckons, in a lonely haze
A silhouetted island, craigy and steep
the strange truth grips, hastens
Finally, as I kneel bedraggled
Dripping a pool of joyous tears
Facing confusions this distance
An empty chasm that separates
Oh why this awaiting stillness
Explain this pregnant silence
when just the last steps remain
Chains of time had inhibited
The explosion as glances meet
Eons of search in which we seek
A twinkle that flutters and glows
In tremulous arms we float
As I nestle against thudding heart
This rhythm, so familiar,
The ultimate crescendo, yes I know
My beloved, I've reached my ultimate cove.
