Two Poems from our Fall Poetry Collection

 
 
POOR DRIED LEAF
   
Author: Anupama Shrinivasan
   
Poem:
POOR DRIED LEAF
   
  THERE SHE BLOWS,HITHER AND TITHER,NO BURDEN TO THE WIND
DRIED AND BROWN AND UNINTERESTING
ONE AMONGST MILLIONS WITH A PURPOSELESS EXISTENCE
GREEN AT ONE TIME IN THE SPRING OF SEASONS.
THERE SHE IS VERY NEAR TO THE TREE
HER BEARER HER GIVER AND OH YES HER FAMILY TREE.
DID I SEE HER THEN I WONDER.
WHEN SHE WAS SHINY AND NEW WITH THE SKIN OF YOUTH AND THE MIEN OF LIFE
OR DID I SEE HER THEN WHEN SHE WAS YELLOW RAVAGED BY THE INTERROGATION OF TIME
FUNNY I DON’T REMEMBER THEN BUT I CAN SEE NOW
THERE SHE LIES BEFORE ME LIFELESS
POOR DRIED LEAF….WAITING TO BE CRUSHED TO NOTHINGNESS

Never alone
   
Author: Sylvia De kock
   
Poem: Never alone
   

As I walk through gardens of stone,
Fear shows its face.
Darkness appears, swallowing my beliefs
Into a shallow grave.

Not knowing when I'm going to fall,
All I can do is to call for your name.
Passing each stone, there's only a memory of a name.
Above, the souls embrace your name.

Wind blowing through my soul;
Trees whispering;
Leaves running by,
Laid to rest as the wind blows its last breath.

Dark clouds assemble,
Thunder speaks.
Shadows drifting by,
Touching each stone,
Never to be alone.
