Kishan Poudel
1.
Tears, drop by drop
Bounced from the eavestrough tumbled
In heart’s mantelpiece.
***
2.
A drop – so ruthless
Well couched on an arum leaf
Rolled and fell aground.
***
3.
Hyacinth in a row
Grow and propagate so fast
In the pond of tears.
***
4.
On a moon-blenched night
Autumn settled in a bloom
Over the heart’s sky.
***
5.
When dusk ends the day
Patters in the shapes of clouds
Bring your memories.
***
6.
The final battle
In the death bed is but fought
Alone, alone, all alone!
