If I could do a Neruda, You would have smelt of summer roses And Autumn pine. There would have been sheer love Of the kind that causes our hearts to ache And loneliness bordering the divine. You would have had so many secrets Welling up as in a girly giggle And so few friends who would hear them all. I am no Neruda I can't paint you a Summer breeze Amidst this long winter chill.
Together, under a clear blue sky
Rajesh... these words are powerful and beautiful... I love that line, stretching beyond memories ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou capture well the awkwardness that can occur upon "running into each other" after the end of a relationship. Well writ Rajesh!
