That Still Quality Poem by Ananta Madhavan

That Still Quality



That still quality
Of one whose loveliness
Is a flame
Or a cold mountain,
Must not be assaulted;
Only touched
To make sure it is there,
Consuming both
Itself and me.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi 29 January 2014

can be easily imagined, considering the circumstance in which this poem was written..most of the time the still quality of human might have saved them from heart break at home and work...nice to read your muse one after another, Ananta Madhavan..
