Dreams...My Fairies! Poem by kunjubi varghese

Dreams, my dreams, you are fairies of paradise

The world will be an empty void, if you were not here.

Without God, without humans, without angels,

Bereft of the sense of purpose, devoid of life force;

Deficient in imagination, of beauty and creative arts

And permeating, fragrance of flower

You are the butterflies, bred and brought up by

Nymphs of the yonder, in the palace in the blue skies,

Built in sapphire stones, and coming as guests;

As honoured guests into this barren earth,

To shower rapture in our hearts, with nectar.

You are opening the doors of my soul, with out

Me knowing it, and painting your pictures

In empty spaces in there, and creating magnificent

Rainbows of multitudinous colors;

Dissolving them in the drops of my tears,

And wiping it away, frequently, intermittently...
