Last Tryst with Clouds

The poet is sitting

by the top of the valley,

looking down n feeling

how deep it is,

just like the love

he feels within..

A cloud passes by

saying in his ears,,

O Poet ,

Don’t look in the valley

n measure its depth...

As its always be shallow

before your love...

Next cloud comes by saying,,

O poet,

You weren't wise

couldn't even think

love was as cold as an ice.

why were you chasing

who wasn’t there.

hurting your friends

and those who care.

Then the cloud comes

laden with tears,,

look at me

O Poet

says in his ears...

The gal is gone

leaving u for long..

lets shed some drops

n feel light again...

share some thoughts

n become wise again..

you and the gal met by chance ,

That wasn't what destiny wants..

-------------------------------------------

The poet looks at the sky,

with tear laden eyes...

Thinking of what cloud just said,

was all that an illusion,

which his heart had said...

All those times was he blind,

couldn’t even get what was destined.

no one to say,

no one to listen,

he was dying with /

a cloud as his friend..

Poet takes his heart,

out on the grass....

Cloud asked,

What its for...

Poet laughed,

I am dying/

So is my destiny,,

at least this heart will find,

the gal’s love divine ...

Once again the

destiny will loose..

Because

in my heart,

its love that rules......
