Attic eyes ==================== A pensive eagle flies in the ethereal space. The encyclopedia salesman crawls down the road with his paralyzed cheery face. A note of distant bell is taking the shape of a girl’s tress. These are the scenes he has seen, he knows. Yes, this attic knows them all. This attic sees them all. His boyish eyes have seen the golden brown leaves flying before they fall upon a road. The lonesome kite is losing a fight with the reversing wind. The once-pink house at the other side of the road and spinster who lives there forever with a cynic thirst for some vague things. The boy at the attic of course knows them closely, like the creaky floor where he lives, like the pair of crutches by the bed. © 2008 - All Rights Reserved Kushal Poddar clever talks delay friendship! |

You are so talented, dear Ku! Besides exceptional poetry, I could see you writing wonderful scripts. You are so visual. Wonderful, in its sadness. Love and hugs. Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |

Yo Poddarku, It's good you know the boy in the attic. He needs friends. The poem works well. Bobby |

What Bobby said. How I wish that I could wave a magic wand and give him lots of real live friends and smiles and laughter and fun. Owl |
