The spark of Reminiscences

                 The spark of Reminiscences

The moment I closed my eyes,

I found myself on that same familiar lane

Walking between the green fences

And the sweet smelling flowers.

It was wonderful,

To be travelling back

Through my mind.

But I can’t feel

The touch of his caring hands

And the whispers so reckless

No more the warmth of his presence

Suddenly felt so lost,

And lonely, I shivered

With fear, and insecurity

And pleaded for a safe escapade

I shouted, but it did not echo

I gasped, but did not sweat

The heart pounded louder,

As I felt weak.

Loosening the muscles of the eye,

I saw something in the darkness.

Then a light at a distance showed me the way

I followed it for some hope.

I ran till the beam of rays intensified

And I found free of the bounds

And back to the realm of reality

The light showed me the present is always

A beautiful bliss of time !
