I Wished

In a fine weather 
In your garden ,
I  wept 
When the gentle breeze blew .

As the fragrance rose
From the champaka flower,   
When a wild  pigeon  cooed 
Roosting on a tree branch yonder, 
When egrets  were seen  flying 
Towards the distant blue hill ,
In a fine weather ,
I  wept   
In solitude 
In your garden .

I'm impressed by your lovely poem, Akham. It appears that not even all the beauty that surrounds you can erase the the longing for what you don't have. Regards // paul
