If life began the day we met
My beloved,
Where have all my years of infancy gone?
For I have lain in your arms, since I was reborn;
Drinking the nectar from your upturned lips;
Reeling, evermore intoxicated with every sip,
Into your warm and tender arms, always yielding,
And from the harsh world without, my life shielding,
Like a mother gently stroking, cradling my head,
Against your breast, then tucking me to bed,
Lulled into dreams by the beats of your heart,
Beating in consonance with mine from the start,
As though I had never existed in another time,
As though I had been born to revel in the wine
Of the ecstasy of your love and all else had been
The adulthood that I have never felt or seen,
Yes, Infancy followed adulthood when You I met,
My beloved.

Deepak, I truly love all of your  writings, from the heart, rich and flowing. And the underlying premise that I see in much of them, is intriguing, and I hope with all my heart, truth..

well written...
and if only...

If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...

Wonderful Deepak, as usual!  

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.

Thanks Rex & Mag, As I said - these are all our lives recorded for posterity - though whether posterity will ever bother to read them - or read anything for that matter carries a big Question Mark (Smiles)
