Know not why
the empty concrete chair
on the sea-shore
still leaves my heart aching for two love-birds
whom I used to watch every morning
leaning over the balcony of my flat at the sea-face
savouring the exquisite infinite blue of the sea
engrossing in the cool and warm embrace of sea-breeze.
From the very day I started residing in the flat
I began watching them sharing sweet dreams
touching, feeling each other’s lips
pinching each other cracking jokes
and after spending sweet, honeyed moments
each holding other’s hand
bidding bye to the Mother Sea for the day.
Where they flew in from
where they flew away
I know not.
Deep in the very depth of my heart
I only wished them a
bright, colourful, delightful future.
To my shock and embarrassment one day
I saw their permanent seat
empty for the first time
as I wished to see them together everyday
on the sea-shore
hence keeping a flame of hope in my heart
I waited for them daily morning.
It was an infinite wait……
they never flew into the sea shore from
that very day I missed them
whither they flew away I know not
yet my heart aches for the two love-birds
why I know not
might be human nature….
