Untimely Santa ========================= Let’s play Santa with the backyard children. It is early fall with ashes and golds. Touch the heads with hazel hairs, careless tussle with them, offer sweets to the street with patches of sunshine, brown and all crispy. After all an autumn Sunday with a nip of chill is coming in trough the window. After all this is the month of birthdays. After all it is your birthday. After all everybody else have things to forget and at this age you can not forget past, memories. Only present becomes blur. He wears a light sweater with the enduring impressions of hands long gone. Ha, repetitions of images and phrases are life. Let’s play Santa with them who have trained themselves to disbelieve every man, every woman, every pervert and every sane. Let’s play autumn with an ol’man boys of backyards. © 2008 - All Rights Reserved Kushal Poddar clever talks delay friendship! |

Oh my, dear Ku, what an outstanding, multi-layered, poignant offering! ... the "nip of chill" is felt on my skin, as a reaction to this beauty. Love, Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |

Kushal, my dear friend, this is quiveringly beautiful and, as always, speaks a maturity and understanding of people and life, way beyond your years, and portrays your wonderful gift of giving, bathed in your characteristic humility. I read it over and over and over, and my appreciation and enjoyment of it and submersion into it, increased with each reading. Please post Telescope again so that we can all read and reply to it. - Owl |
