கவிதை... கவிதை...

எட்டுத் திக்கில் ஒன்றில் இருந்தாவது

நான்கு பேர் வாழ்த்த

இரண்டு நிமிடத்தில்

ஒரு சிறு கவிதை எழுதினால் போதுமா?

inspired by: obvious need for creating readers and this

அவ‌ன்

Laptop in front

Bright full moon smiling above
Breeze caressingly flowing across
Favourites on FM floating around
Road unusually silent beyond…
Targets ahead
Laptop in front
Restless mind within

A sudden melody rings across the stillness

The whole world rolls in slumber

Could be in a sleep deep

Or a nightmare...

Even the restless river

Relaxes for a slower journey home.

In the midst of barren vastness

The traveller's footsteps

Hide from the waning moon shine.

But the wanderer

Too weary to sleep

Is not alone.

A solitary instrument plays

Favourite notes dancing on still air

A whiff of chillness as the melody meanders.

Cold dew covers the ragged stone

Gems shining with the sparse stars.

Myriad rainbows in the middle of a desert.

The sauntering song seeps through the sifting sands...
