Unnoticed

(Dedication: For Dr Ram Mehta.)


Morning light
Spreads divine psalm --
Touch of zest


By this stone bench
Sleeping cat purrs --
Feline dreamscapes


That old man sits alone
Strange neighbour --
Thoughtful wanderings


Sadness in shock:
Food court bankrupt --
Ghost town feeling 


Dress fitting session
Bridal gowns, smart suits --
A lovely affair


Just because
You said so --
Let it be then


Brief excursion
Nowhere near --
Beyond conflict


Open agenda
This showpiece --
Mood swing construct


Cheer wears a face
Serious as glee;
Smiles punctuate


For many hours
This wait upon --
Something new perhaps


Meal time in-between
Lunch and dinner --
Not quite the same


Gifts freely given
Notice brisk gratitude --
Thoughtful intent


Style a smile
Wait a while --
Cheer now piles


Explore fringes
Curiosity peeks --
Discovery sublime
