Have you...too?A Poem by Chandradhish GhoshIn the end did you see the clouds retreat? Did you see the leaves swell with pride too? Did you tip-toe out in the open too? Have you felt the rain seep into your body too? Did you smell as nice as the leaves did? Have you seen the birds sit with their feathers all fluffy
then? Have you seen sadness in the eyes of the dog too? Have you noticed the water droplets on the glass? Have you watched them stop in their tracks? Have you seen them garner all their might and push one last
time? Have you seen them find paths to meet each other? Have you wished to be a water droplet too? Have you seen them reduce in size when the Sun came out? Are you afraid of the end too? Do you feel lonely too? Have you passed through the night thinking it would be your
last? Did you know why you felt it would? Have you succumbed to numbness too? Did you fill your body with alcohol too? Did the smoke burn your lungs too? Did you try hard to close yourself down too? Have you listened to piano and violin on that night? Did you feel them talking to you? Did you realize that the song was written just for you? Have you wished to be music too? Have you wondered which tune you wanted to be too? Have you switched off the lights and felt darkness engulf
you? Is it dark inside you too? Did you wake up to the rain knocking on your window too? Did you sip in the rain too? Did it wash away your darkness too? Did you feel warm when the sun came out after the rain? Did you feel like a winner too? Have you thanked the darkness of the night? Is it full of light inside you too? Are you smiling now…Like you always do? © 2014 Chandradhish Ghosh |
