A BIRD’S MEMOIRE

Satheesan Narakkode
Lit the colour of memories
Of the age without worries
As the air was fresh
And the thoughts smash
      When the sun shined among
      The dews like dreams along
      The fields, sang the grass
       Filled the mind with lore solace
The marsh.
   What smell had told me?
The granary
    What the heat had told me?
Charged with the taste of it
Moved always my heart a bit
      Farmer’s beads of sweat fallen
      Shoots of leaves had come sudden
      Spread a green of green everywhere
      Now it hasn’t seen anywhere
Soil flamed, burning sun
There isn’t a speck of green
Water squeezed and bottled
Where can I be then nestled?
