Here I am!!


Here I am!!

I feel so exhausted thinking of my incompetence... 

I want to descend into a reverie listening to a flawless baul strain, 

Plunge into that half-read book again, 

indolently swaying in my patio... 

And smell those Hyacinths one last time before they wither... 

That's when... 

That's precisely when I get toiled away by my encompassments. 

Dismayed at night, I try to close my scalded eyes... 

My frail body touches the bed to doze off. 

That's when... 

That's precisely when the gentleness of a tiny hand enfolds me,

A Giggle, a good night's kiss, 

Takes me to the rhythm of that baul song, and my bedroom fills with the aromatic tot scent... 

Here I am!! Clasping the joys of my life...!! 

My lips are now chanting the indelible lullabies heard in the past...!!! 

Here I am!! 

Diving into the profoundness of the fascinating pages of my favourite book, 

Here I am!!
