A Boy Who Touched The Sky

sand and mud splattered on his dud he watches his shoes sinking deeper in pool a stone  at sight he doesn't want  to fight but that seems the only way to keep him cool he thrashes and there goes the stool flying through the sky a story to boast about as birds don't lie the crying soul went dashing  through the door calling foul roaring back  comes a clutter for a boy  the success matters so he gathers his wet shoes and tries to adjust the  stance forgetting the simple fact of he didn't  stand a chance and with a dance or two he runs like a fool towards the old school  with the thought  of ghosts playing dust off while his feet had started to give up rolling  over the grass bed his breath wide spread  a dragon cloud soaring high flew right amidst the floating sky the bird waved him slight  flying to go out of sight he had lost and found his try  beyond the mighty sky while fresh droplets  felt on his face  ended up the chase  rain had  made the dragon cloud to surrender a dr

Caught

Caught in your smile..
Going breathless for a while.
As you look back at me..
I could see.
Patio chairs sit empty now..
As laughter echoes through summer.
Shouting out loud right into my ear..
Then coming down on my lap..
Those widespread eyelids twinkle..
Not falling for the trap..
Is me.
The steaming coffee smokes..
Flickering lips with a sip.
Foggy glasses..
While rain splashes the windows all afternoon..
Trying to watch through closed eyes..
Feeling the voice of the door..
Or the creaky floor..
Heart trembles as night falls..
Sleepless gets me.
Not happening..
Not anymore..
Where they are ,where they go..
Only heart pounds in despair..
Wishing they know.
Rushing back to my arms..
Are crying droplets..
Snarling back..
Is a faded reflection..
Trying to look through..
Is me.
Walking on dry leaves..
Listen as silence swings..
Noisy heart beats..
Clumsy crossing streets..
Caught a butterfly..
As it passes by..
Giving out a smile..
That’s in me.

* Dedicated to parents and their selflessness.It’s a courageous pact indeed.
