The wooden bench,
Sitting pretty in the same
park,
Shaded by the same tree,
Autumn leaves lay all
around
Some floating in the
gentle breeze
Evoking memories, so
sweet, so profound,
The sun rays sparkling
like gold trinkets,
The breeze humming a
tune,
Melodious like she used
to sing,
It’s been a decade,
My feelings are fluttering
all over the place,
Like butterflies lost in
a maze,
Footsteps forced me to
gaze,
She cascaded towards me,
Like a goddess answering
the prayers
Left me speechless in
wonder,
Suddenly the environment
burst with laughter,
Crystal clear, like the
maiden river,
I followed the music
Looked behind her
To find her lookalike
Her childhood- revisited
Her daughter, her pride!
Everything around us
Lay dreadfully quiet,
Like death pondering on
what to do next?
The only cause
That lingered around
Was the pregnant pause!
