The Hampi Rocks Poem by Jagannath rao Adukuri

The Hampi Rocks



The evening swapped the orange sky
For a silver-lined cloud in tatters
The rocks had sizzled through the day
At sundown their fever subsided
Their blazing orange desires ebbed
In the nucleus of their inner being
Time had burnt them to perfection
Beyond the pale of their stony selfness
Their sun-smell touched the bushes
Quickening life in their brown limbs
As the sun sank behind the world’s edge
Their shadows vanished in the sky.
