Anisha Dutta Poet Enclosed Rhyme

Uncompensated Loss

UNCOMPENSATED LOSS

              I am crying because I dropped the posy
           down a storm drain, gone forever
           ‘Precious gem of a lover.’
           It was the first gift from my love Rosy.

           Soft shy tongue could not voice her feelings.
                 I boldly approached to propose
                   She hesitated to come close.
                 Only the posy was her offerings.
         
          I was charmed, honored but failed to preserve
               the gift of her suppressed pleasure,
               my most valuable treasure.
         Now stormy rainy night just to observe.
