why should yearning for comfort yield to guilt
why
why should relaxed nerves feel strained after a while
because they were touched
felt
explored and put at ease
why can not we just be
but is that an alibi
to say
i am not here any more
take me, o wind
somewhere away
far
faster
and beyond the land of feelings
curiosity, concern, compassion and collaboration
Anil, as ever, your poetry evokes deep images and feelings in me, ethereal, it seems to lift the spirit up while its strength and relevance grounds you and swirls you around, unsure yet reassured.
