Unbounded thoughts like birds in the sky,
Flowing waters that never run dry.
Silent reserve, where introversion dwells,
Crafting tunes, like soft chimes and bells.

I can hear it from the edge of the dark wood,
but I have to come to its brim to feel
the back and forth of the sea.

the whisp of summer air
smell of diesel between the congested road
the last bit of sun setting
hot beads of sweat tickling down the neck
and the long summer talks
of the wish to go back
grab a cup of ice water
sinking on a chair
near the balcony
with a plate of hot samosas
and ranting about the heat
which seems
unbearable for the hills
the cool breeze awaits to cover the town with its blanket
at night
the sudden signs of rain
thunder clashes it
only to find
a bright day the next morning
