Poetry
Archana Kurup
Silver Recollections A spray of silver Leaping in an arc Sprinkling sunshine In rainbow sparkles Soaking the skin Drenching the soul….. Teasing the heart Into remembering An era long gone…. Buried under a heap Of new memories And experiences…. Struggling to surface Evoking recollections Of an age of innocence Freedom and harmony… An age of beauty And joy in simple things…. A moment frozen in time Still…. and fluid Lost… but within reach Happy…. tinged with sadness In another lifetime…. Another existence….. (This poem won honourable mention in the December 2011 Poetry Writing competition of SH College Writers’ Forum)
