SPRING WILL ARRIVE BY Ramakant Pande

The dark stark nothingness

Of the real

Into which fleeting moments

Like a shooting star

Pulsate and disappear

For ever,

Leave behind

Longing and regret

Of gnawing ulcerous pain

Icicled precipitate of

Your decision

To drift away.

There is but

A silver lining to

Our separation,

Like in a cycle

Of dying hopes

In long dry summer,

Then autumn, then winter

Leaving me alone

With nothing

But to wander away

Inhibiting

A closeted world

Of bright splendour

Clinging

To our time together

On expectation of a life

That could not be

Hoping, nurturing love

Never giving up

In impatient fervor

In eager anticipation

That there will be

A miracle

When we will wake up

To our plain togetherness

Shaking off scales

Of an inopportune dream.

Or a happenstance

Making us meet

To redo it all over

Or serendipity

Uniting us again

Like it always did.

 That buds will emerge

Packed with bloom

And finally

Spring will arrive

In a profusion of Petunia

Of Pansy, of Daffodil.

And it is but true

That separation never happened

That thawed love will melt

To frothy bubbling resilience

Like gushing streams

After numbing snow.

And here we will be

Together again.
