Hello It’s Me

Posted on June 9, 2012 by Soma Mukherjee

some forgotten dreams

in an old diary

humming a known tune

calling my name

irks me

tempts me

they have this rosy glow

why now why today

i ask and they smile

~♥~

some forgotten dreams

in an old diary and

a dried rose,token of love

it may have lost its sheen

but still evokes desire

long forgotten

why now why today

i ask and they keep quiet

~♥~

some forgotten dreams

a rose and a small letter

hand written

an invitation

in case someday

i feel my life is worth

one more chance

forgive my self

and those around

why now why today

i ask and it sparkles with hope

~♥♥~

some forgotten dreams

a rose,a letter and one phone number

i tremble

as if looking at it

will breathe life in it

no, the past has long gone

but my present chides

why not now why not today

and i make a call

a simple hello

and the diary starts singing

a long forgotten song

~~~~~

You have written an awesome poem, it dances from beginning to end while enticing the heart, and makes aware promises pushed aside. Simple love, always smolders in one’s heart, but a pure love touches, massages it, nourishes it and treasures it as a pearl of great worth, never leaving its side!

You weave a delicate web. So glad in the end you ventured upon it. The call never made is the one which engenders wistfulness and make one wonder, “What if?” Absolutely delightful. {HUGZ} Red.

So pleasantly the present connects to the past
there is always a fine thread though years have passed
is it a blessing or is it a curse that is cast,
that some memories remain till we breathe our last?

You slowly built up the tension and anticipation – and wham! Well done again, Soma dear.

I wonder what the song was about…was it all you hoped for…some forgotten love, still waiting, yearning for you…some music waiting for the final score…

Love and peace, Eric 🙂

~ Self Awareness for Change ~ The draft of an angel | June 9, 2012 at 06:49

a forgotten vision arises in the distance
a light, a whisper
a warmth in the heart
I looked and breathed life into it
it is too late to send it back
a past long gone
a forgotten song about tomorrow
and my present resonates
why not now why not today
a child’s game unfolds, a dance
a life that sings the untold joy
hello it’s me!

Hope you will not mind Soma … I really could not resist it! Smiling love.

    ouff .. I was not sure how you would like it that a foreigner comes to write a follow up to this beautiful poetry as if it was not already complete in itself! I really felt the rhythm and could not resist weaving a few threads in the tapestry. Really happy you tolerated it!

Beautiful, Soma! Just Beautiful!
I have some treasured keepsakes to help me remember, but most of them are in my head and my heart. The stroke changed some of them, gave me others. However, most of them remain with me and I, sometimes, allow them out to play.

Sometimes a single “simple hello” can trigger songs to last the rest of our lives, Soma! I SO relate to this poem addressing the need to get past our reluctance and doubts and just reconnect in love!
