In the dim soothing ambience
Of the restaurant, you sat
Across fervently studying
The catalog of my eyes,
Searching for that glint
Of emotion called ‘love’…
As I sipped the tempting soup
Satisfied with objective pleasure
Descending down my throat,
You invaded the primordial mounds
Of long buried emotions
In the sorrowing pyramid of my heart
Like an obsessed explorer
Opened the sarcophagus
And breathed life into the
Mortal remains of mummified ardor
I noticed the haze dissolving,
And felt my innards stir.
You ceremoniously took me
Into the white marbled edifice
Exclusively built in your heart
The penumbra inside me
Merged with the extensive shadow
Of the everlasting monument of love…!
another very passionate poem with floating sentiments in the sea of love....thanks for sharing and surely wining 10's
Seema, your 'Shadow' poems are all passionate, & the down to earth realism is good! For who has seen 'heaven' or Plato's concept of 'the Good'? ! Yet I would like you to have a peek into the spiritual world, by requesting you to read my poem ' My Shadow', written last year! - Raj Nandy
yes. so you are proud. there is not a place so worthy to live than heart and the heart you dreamed. good wishes for these poems
God in heaven, Holy be your name Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done.... All I can say is a prayer and hope... You continue in stead and move From strength to strength... Such a Beautiful poem. Sincere thanks from the bottom of my heart. Yours is a true work of art.
Hmmm... After reading two parts in a row now comes the third one... It seems you are growing fast in the art of poetry, lovely and now spirituality... A maturing one... Keep growing as there is no end to progress in the domains of love, mindfulness and truth...
Seema, You have now become a specialist in writing this type of modern poetry! I enjoyed reading it! I too wish you a very happy Dewali! In fact I have also wised all my readers the same today at the end of my poem, - 'Plato's Cave Allegory', which you may like to read! - Raj Nandy
