TiMe cApSuLe…

It was a heady blend

My rum, your whiskey

In darkness they flickered

Those stray stars overhead

Darkness our refuge!

Our backs on the wall

Our Feet stretched out

Our nearness rest athwart

All for ‘Morrow’s goodbye

Silence our cradle!

Silence employs disquiet

Between two melting hearts

And coy silence broke

With our sporadic swigs

Silence gift people Present!

Next to a beam gone astray

stretched not too far

I watched your feet shine

And watched your ring shine

When it chink the bottle!

I hold you in my arm

Thinking about all the things

going back in time…

Across the sky …

I spot one glittery star!

A gentle wind hit my nostril

carrying your enticing smell

And with every savor breathe

I began to gather them

For morrow and for memory!

Life is a portrait in creation

I color one streak onto yours

You splash one onto mine

I paint a pair of eyes for you

And you affix a tear drop!

I opened my eyes

Faraway dawn splotch

Unveiling sleepy horizon

I watched your closed eyes

Quiver in that faint light

I closed my eyes too

Shut the impending daylight

Rejoined the dance of nimble lips

And kept the gentle flame alight

I bring to a close; OuR TiMe cApSuLe!
