If You Were Here…

A gentle hug of Mother Nature
Pulls me out.
In connivance with the wind,
She showers pink petals
To cheer me up.

Still tied to shadows,
I glance at the beauty, the blossoms
And think…
If you were here
We would’ve walked under this pink canopy.

Placid water reflects my image
And you wave at me
Your endearing smile says:
“Your presence enhances the beauty.”
For a moment, your voice echoes

And then your face fades,
Jolting my heart with a renewed shudder
Cherry trees catch the signal,
Spread some more petals around me.
Draping your memories, I walk alone.

  1. This is a beautifully written poem Balroop. The poignancy of your words is very touching. Thanks for joining in.

  2. A pretty image and I felt longing weaved into your beautiful words, Balroop.

      1. Balroop, there is one things about grief. It’s not something we can explain, only those of us who wear the shoes can understand. A privelge nobody should ever want to endure. ❤
