Gossamer Memories Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon

Gossamer Memories

Rating: 5.0


Heavily veiled morning skies
Enticed by sweet memories
I chose to skim through the old books
And records of my dear college days.

Folded between two leaves
Was a rose fully dried up
Colourless, pale, delicate
And devoid of its fragrance.

I remembered my love
who it was gifted to me by
Her radiant loving smile,
Her sweet melodious voice.

Tearful parting,
Memories gossamer galore!

Smiling through her tears
Her long dark eyes gleaming
Like a rose smiling in dew drops
Shining in the morning sun.
