An Experience of Seeking Coral
For a piece of coral
I’ve dived into the bottom of colonies of polyps
Through the way of your heart!
In the core of the Mediterranean Sea!
I got a celenterati in the form of you
I judged for –
Calcium carbonate versus my weak skeleton!
It’s going deeper and deeper as speedily as sunlight.
Humanity has been collapsed in the depth!
Inside of my own heart!
Nightmares wanna bloom on the lagoon
Like lotus around us!
Obviously, I’ve passed my life
Since the Paleolithic Era!
At the banks of sad ocean!
I drank salty water
I swam in salty water
You noticed
It’s my tear!
It’s my sweat
Showing
Sicily, Sardinia and Naples’ coastline.
Where a couple of cactus was blossoming!
I was really jealous to the dry sands!
I smiled from mishap for good luck!
And got U-turn to my social life!
I’d had a small piece of stone on my hand
For Stone Age!
Until now
I can listen to the whistle of waves at the shoreline!
I can see mirage of coral everywhere!
I gonna be a diver into your heart!
Once again
For a piece of coral
I’ve dived into the bottom of colonies of polyps
Through the way of your heart!
Poet Khagendra Pandhak Dai, (as I have read about his abstract philospohy with deep poetic frenzy a lot of times shared to me), has brought in his typical write-up out here in this Bhutanese Literary site. I am glad that I got to read you here. Poetry as I found is seeking for enough freedom of living… Wonderful dai. Have a great time!
