Universal glitch this way says the signpost pointing downhill exactly at a time when I want to go up the hill knowing very well going up the hill is like trying to throw a pebble at the rock and hoping it would crumble -- the rock that is! and yet I seem to like the challenge of running up the hill however exhausted I find myself on reaching the top exhilarating it should be I hoped to howl at the clouds from close quarters keep left says the street sign when the heart knows love is always right and even logic knows that I want to follow LOVE for-love, right? wrong! look before you cross said the billboard and I looked around to find a beautiful face in the crowd deep blue eyes, ocean-like -- Maldives or Bahamas -- hair reddish-brown and curly with the tip of hair brushing pouting lips sending me in wild spins of wild-fire flames like flickering fireflies in the middle of a summer night just before breaking my nose on the crowded mass of the cold lamppost the pebble at the rock the pebble crumbled!

Sudhir, what a magnificent poem!! This one has some of all in it...wisdom, romance, and humor. I had my reply gathering in my head until I got tickled when I came to this part. LOL just before breaking my nose on the crowded mass of the cold lamppost I thought it had turned into a poem of romance. This is a delight, Sudhir. ![]() Hugs, Ethel |

LOL... I guess I'd better watch where I'm going. I don't think I want to break my nose walking into a lampost while looking before crossing! ![]() ~El Campeador “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

Hey, Sudhir, this is really excellent writing! I like the way you connected the phrases the way you did...you have grown and keep growing! Reminds me of the line in Don Quixote - "Whether the rock hits the pitcher or the pitcher hits the rock, it's bad news for the pitcher!" ![]() |
