Change Poem by sreelekha premjit

Then in hairier times
smoke emitting
erect frame
he loved silence
he worshiped it
and enshrined it
in the drawing room
in the veranda
steals of laughter
then escaped
sheer energy rippled
the walls of stony silence shook
later, the moon like crown
made him frown
longing for laughter
he searched the empty rooms
in still verandha
silence stood rooted
firm, resolute
no stray sound dare raise its ugly head
