Subimal Sinha-Roy Poet Free verse

The Poems I Never Wrote

Unfading years draped you with grace
Like twilight tinged leaf you glowed 
I floated around you on wings of dream 
I thought I’d write a poem for you.

As we soaked the sheen of emerald meadow
The patina of dainty dawn you mirrored
On your face flushed by the sunburst sky
I thought I’d write a poem for you.
 
In my garden as the flowers withered
You blossomed with spectrum of lasting spring 
My yearning flittered like beguiled butterfly
I thought I’d write a poem for you.

We’re drenched by mesmeric moonshine drizzle
The tinsels of longing rippled through me
Entranced me with enthralling rhythm
I thought I’d write a poem for you.
   
I sailed through the tempest of life
Couldn’t salvage the wrecked ship
As the ancient mariner didn’t reach the shore
All these poems I never wrote.
