Fresh Leaf Poem by Praveen Kumar In Shobha Priya

A turnover to fresh leaf,
More cordial, deeper, rich and subtle,
In a vibratile immortal work,
Relegates past with time's tides
To the womb of sweet, distant old days.

A rhythmic melody, thick like blood
That lights two hearts in mutual warmth,
Dissolves souls in passion's calm streams
And ruddy riots of fuming hot yearnings.

The incessant tides of reciprocating delight
And immortal springs of willing trust
Scale heights, unscaled in the past,
Delve to depths, undelved in the past,
And light skies, never lighted in the past.


The frugal streams of foregone days
Coalesce to huge waterfull
Of passions and hair-raising joy,
Perchance, to an ocean in new leaves.

The precious blue, deep and clam,
That dissolves the two in eternal hug
Transports the loves in immortal wings
To the promised land of eternal warmth,
Where nothing clouds the sunshine of love.

The fresh leaf springs new vibrant life
From the bottomless well of forgotten leaves;
Old colours return, new musics catch up
And the soulful poem grows from leaf to leaf.
