Drops of hope..

In the moonlight

near the dark river..

dipping my legs

in the chill water!

feeling the rhythm,

of this moving current..

I sat over the moist rock

hugging, the misty wind..

Not a sound

could I hear..

except that

of some far away bird,

crying for its mate.!

The time went past me

The moon, still brighter

up in the sky! and,

the clouds floated away..

I still sat..staring

at its depths!

My eyes, they were in search

of a lost piece- my dream

Once made, but lost

still lingering in my heart

the tang, and its essence!

There I felt,

the warmth of tears

kissing my cheeks, as if

consoling my lost mind..

and my heavy heart!!
