Sashi Prabhu Poet Rhyme

Dog Eared Page

14th jan 2012 
By Sashi Prabhu (zeauoxian)

Silently laid my eyes,
Upon tattered page piles,
Littered outside,
The garden far side

I picked up a dog eared page,
Brought back memories of the bygone age,
Of the days of sitting together,
In this garden, cuddling and smooching in cold weather.

On such a glorious winter day,
A long time ago, by the way,
I scribbled on this page love notes,
In double quotes.

Nostalgic now are,
Memories of “au revoir”,
Melancholy tones fill in,
My poignant heart to its brim.

A wind now blows this dog eared page,
And I dully chase it with some rage,
To find it stuck to the old gum tree,
And as I see the page I begin to read all about me……………..

Silently laid my eyes,
Upon other tattered page piles,
Littered outside,
The garden far side……………………..
