Garden Of Words... Poem by Vivek Kumar

Garden Of Words...



Not in the map but the corner of her courtyard...
Talks to a bloom, remember where it got a start..?
If not, then there was a time when she visited a garden...
Roaming nowhere and she just picked a flower broken...

It's been time and it's the time for one more dawn...
Garden of words, one may lose oneself like a fawn...
''Look, she is back but having something in her hand...''
Yellow flames on red blossoms and green did expand...

''What forced you to stay away from travelling here..?
About broken one, does it smile or just fade with fear..?
Forget things, look at fresh ones and take a small hike...
You are always allowed to take it home which you like...''

These words of garden put a smile on her confused face...
Handed the roots and asked garden for watering its trace...
''No more possession, these roots belong to that broken one...
This better deserves to be planted back here to get this sun...''

Garden showed her a perfect place to make her wish true...
She carved the soil and put the roots under the sky blue...
''Grow taller and one day, someone else will surely pick you up...
I shall take care of memories since I planted you in my teacup...''

It's been time and it's the time for one more dawn...
That root has turned into flower and grew so strong...
Dreams of entanglement, it is smiling today like never before...
Because it knows what's written next in destiny to explore...

''There will be the time and she will use to visit the gardens...
All the papers but the broken one will be chosen in her tense...
Neither in map nor in words but in the corner of her courtyard...
The touch of blossoms shall revive all memories in her heart...''
