I sit alone on the pond's ghat in this rainwashed noon.
Her ripples dead
She ruminates once more
In the deafening silence of the crickets' buzz.
Came the men to splash upon me
The women within me bared shame
Frolicked the boys in me carefree
Made me alive in their joyous game!
Swam on me hope's stretched hands
Sunk in me the broken heart
Left over me the girl her hair strands
At the end they all did depart!
Now I must wait for the sun to set
To drown my memories of the noon
Dreaming the stars to open heaven's gate
Wrap me in night's ripened moon!
