Dewdrops

Dewdrops on a tree leaf,

Trickling down it's end.

Falling on the wet grass.

Around the bend,

The road which goes

To your home

Smells of wet mud...

While the waters roam,

Wading through which

I reach your door,

The sweet wooden fragrance...

And the lightening roars,

But with no rain.

Everything is still. 

Just like the cricket...singing

On the window sill

Which is shut tight

And I see you

Moving about

Without a clue

That it's me

And...

Then I see - your slight smile,

And no one wants to

Rest awhile...

The coat drops

The carpet's the earth,

And there's only pleasure - 

With pain, with mirth,

With lots of hope

But no expectations

And the rain bangs hard,

With the man on the station

Blowing the loud whistle

Declaring the wanted end...

While the wind blows soft,

It's love message it sends

To the fire in the fireplace

Still shining bright

With the dewdrops on the forehead

And eyes full of light...

The rain stops again

The carpet's a mess

As the dewdrops just gave the leaf

A beautiful caress...
