Dad

On the phone
His sepia smile
The timbre of his voice

In the sunshine of forgetfulness
I look for nature’s colourful cursive footnotes
Stash my pocket with wildflowers
A flower for each moment I miss you
Together we smile and sky write into the cosmos
You live beyond us
Into eternity

I trace a poem into my heart.

  2. Your poetries are alive . Subject equally good . Imagination up to mark . And my appreciation to all of them is total . I personally feel that Poetry is words of the God on the Earth . And the poet non other than a creator himself. Keep your movement on . Thanks .
