moon-tree . . .

moon-tree . . .

A Poem by Swaroop Manikandan

clear sky of 
the rain-stopped-night.
the tree in front 
hides the moon 
that has just come out 
of the clouds.

looking at the moon
through the leaves
you are asking,
'is the moon grown
in the tree?'.

as i smile at you in silence
you take my hand in yours 
to say
'no, the tree has grown in the moon'.

you too start smiling 
with that revelation
as my space gets
filled with 
the moon-tree.
