Lifting Of My Mood Poem by BASAB CHAUDHURI

Lifting Of My Mood

You gave me a chocolate yesterday.
About thirty hours have passed since then.

Now I unwrap the chocolate—
and your finger too.

Between yesterday and today,
the chocolate—
its taste and flavor unchanged,
yet the absence of your fingerprint
brings to mind
a spacecraft touching the ocean,
its parachute drifting away.

The dropped chocolate
lifts my mood.
