My window in the East

My Window in the East

My small window in the East
I keep it open, day in day out-
Wondering at the flood gate of light
Washing away the dark corners in my room.
I keep this window open, hoping for only a gentle touch,
Vibes from your world - if you send.

My window in the East I do not shut
I stand and wait and stare out at the stormy night
Soaked to the bone and
Waiting for you
Are you coming!
Doubt! I never do .
Do you know my address!
My small window in the East.

A Parrot

When I talk of you
They say , a parrot !
How would they know,
Like the southern breeze
You have sent your message
Filling me to the core
With your divine melody.

I try to fathom
Known from the unknown
I try to put my words to your tune
And they laugh , a parrot !

Desperate , I try to bind your melody with
Music , orchestra, lyrics!
But they remain out of reach-
The fragrance, sweetness, the heart wrenching pain
That was there when you hummed!

Throwing caution to the winds
I put my voice to your song!
Even from inside some cried
A parrot!
