When I Close My Eyes Poem by lalitha iyer

When I Close My Eyes



Inwardly
as I look into
with eyes invisible
pictures visible
pours in
currents of waterfalls;
past
past images
they walk and swim
dance in the inner screen
the faces
moods, smiles and silly signs
of fond images
they stand erect
caressesing my
emotional breasts
milking my motherly teats
are tender feelings
like neonatal babes
some here
some there
tugs my bosom
taking away my energy
and potential fluid
yet, giving me
the joy of motherhood
The contentment
in suckling the helpless
innocence
with nameless spontaneity.
