Caves

In your cave
Resides electricity
If I like it
Where is my fault

In your cave
Smiles blue ocean
Where is my fault
If I take some salt 

In your cave
Dwells deep night 
Where is my fault
If I seek single malt

From your cave
We go for the glow 
For the dance of stars
We go back to night

Cave is our beginning
Cave is our survival 
Cave is our garden
Cave our destination

Kai Michael Neumann Date: 8/4/2016 4:16:00 AM I like this poem. It is indeed circular and yet there is a lot of room for emotion and interpretation. Good stuff. Login to Reply Probir Gupta Date: 8/4/2016 4:24:00 AM Thank you ...

Demetrios Trifiatis Date: 8/3/2016 4:01:00 PM In such a Cave all is beautiful all is permitted all is blessed and you are faultless my friend, Probir! Enjoy! Login to Reply Probir Gupta Date: 8/3/2016 11:15:00 PM Thank you so much Demetrios ...This poem, it seems, has not gone well with soup friends ... This is wholly a symbolical writing ... We do perceive our emotions in the variety of out-of-the-cave vast world. But it is in the cave that we recollect them in a dark-yet-starry tranquility. Hence the cave.
