Fingers Withdrawn Poem by Sanjib Saha
Fingers Withdrawn
The brick pavement around the well breaks,
Yet the gaping mouth of red brick fragments stays awake,
In the fading evening, mangoes bud and swell,
A flock of parrots discovers these secrets.
Years end, years come, the world moves on like this,
In a deep, enchanting spell, fingers ache and slowly withdraw.
