Syam Madappattu Poet Free verse

Wreath

I lie on a mound of earth
              Ebb of agony swells my consciousness

              In the mist of farce
              figures fade out

              Innocence of paper boats
              drowns in the floods of tears

              A rainbow ascends mourning
              the lost kiss of little feet on its hunch

              Butterflies flutter in to the crevices of oblivion
              ignoring the touch of little fingers

              Forlorn and forsaken
              I lie on a mound of earth

              Rain seeks pores on my body
