A poem soaked with love and sweet memories.You could have gifted it to me, but I could not ask for it because I didnt have a place of mine to preserve it. Beautifully depicting the helplessness of life

2 – 'Rangwali Holi – a free-for-all festival of colours, where people smear each other with colours and drench each other.' Does " memory" (a topic) refer to some memory the poet has about a MAN, a SHIRT, or a CELEBRATION, ...or a combination? The last 2 lines make me wonder. To MyPoemList (if not there) Bri :)

Thank you Bri Edwards for your nice comment.I should have given a poet's note about the popular Hindu festival 'Holi' for easy understanding of readers.Your comment filled up the lacuna.

1 – " Holi: a popular ancient Hindu festival, originating from the Indian subcontinent." angst: " a feeling of deep anxiety or dread, typically an unfocused one about the human condition or the state of the world in general." i THINK angst, not angsts?

Such a beautiful poem and written in such a interesting way. Our desire to preserve the objects of our love and appreciation is great, at the same time our thoughts that nothing really belongs to us keeps us in restrain. This balance is expressed in such an inovative poem. Great poem Bharati.

I came this morning looking to see if you’d posted anything new and have been rewarded. I found this poem interesting and saw in it a pattern for other poems addressed to objects usually deemed inanimate. Hoping you are well and thriving, Glen

Love in a favorite color. And that shirt became more than just a shirt, but a mark of emotions and dearest feelings. It always happens, but sometimes, this emptiness this space is filled.. ..with a lovely poem like this.

You still remember the sky-blue shirt with dignity and love. An emotional mind is attached with this shirt. No one can throw it as it beholds the sky of love and peace. This is not only a shirt but also a horizon of perception and memory. Such a shirt will be gifted ever soon and it is already gifted by God to us. A great poem is excellently penned.10
