I Will Awaken You Poem by kunjubi varghese

…


I will awaken you, singing a soft

Sweet melody in your ears,

Without blowing off your ravishing

Dream from your mind.


Will not try to wipe away the smile

On those delicious lips,

Without chasing the cloud, in the horizon,

Attempting to shower the rain, willy-nilly.


Even the flowers adorning

Your plaited hair, wherein lurks the radiance

Of the blue black heavens.

Will not be aware of it.


Without making even a ripple in the deep blue

Ocean, in your star studded eyes;

The black mole on your breast will never

Know the tender touch of my fingers.

The nightingale in your mind will not spy on
.
My presence, in your chamber


What made you to come near me and bestow

The gift of your lives here after, with me?

You came stealthy and settled in my lap

Whispering inaudibly in my ears

Your distaste of life, with heartache.

The leaning shadows will not notice;

The rain soaked clouds are busy kissing the earth;

And now I will awaken you…
