A Castle In Seconds.

Not a lot to say about myself. I woke up late and rushed to work. It was a crazy day. I did all I can this day and this week. Still… naaa I should not be ambitious like I was 15 years ago. Life should be lived through ages.

  Before I go into the poem if someone want to add me to Twitter add me here is the link http://www.twitter.com/LonelyPoet

   Now about this poem that follows. Every fathers day I think about writing a poem. But never really wrote anything. As I cannot write a poem today and release it this day itself because of copyright issues, I wrote a poem, not today. It was not completed early this week. It took some wild turns and twists. Some part needed to be removed from the poem as that looked very creepy. I hope you all will enjoy this one. I brought the words “Happy Father’s Day” in the poem but it is not about Fathers Day. Maybe another time I will write about Father’s Day… when I am a real Father. Hope you all understand.

 

A Castle In Seconds.

 

Attractive, charming and pleasant,

Oh angels will lose their charms in her prettiness,

Looking at him she smiled again and again,

So young, but not too young,

He is old, not too old but not young anymore,

Stood up and to walk away he tried,

But nothing can stop him from looking back,

Those eyes and smile, somewhere in memories hide,

Long days filled years cloud memories,

Oh’ still a young lady of this age he never known.

 

He walked away thinking deep,

And the little angel to forget he tried,

When browsing through the magazine stands,

Clouds cleared, “Elisa”, he cried,

From a long gone past she awoke,

Rushed he to every corner of the street,

But no sign of the angel who smiled like her,

In disappointment on the stone bench he sat,

With glimpses of a long gone past through mind flashing,

College days, party nights, travels, movies, coffee shops,

Unemployment, misunderstandings, tears, anger and bitterness,

Breakup and busy schedules of foundations of life,

A foundation well built but no castle upon it built.

 

Oh’ he remembered it all in minutes,

But in confusion of all senses frowned,

As no clue he got about Elisa and the young lady he saw,

When about to walk away from behind he heard a sweet voice,

“Happy Father’s Day, Daddy”

Turned around and he saw Elisa holding the young angel,

Nodding with a smile, the nod that answered without words,

Every question that to his mind came,

And built a castle faster than any architect can.
