Give Me

Noted Nest

By Akshai Suresh



Give me a flavour 

I wouldn’t be able to savour

If not now, if not from you

The hour is fleeting 

So is this life and feeling

Whether it’s vice or wise 

Don’t wait more, all may grow and go 


Grant me that golden word

You harbour as beloved gold 

Let the bard in me  place it impishly 

In every poem I braid soothingly 


Or in a treacly way 

Weave me a lovely lullaby 

Of which no other ear hears its melody

You may be a traitor or soul tainter 

I mind not, be now a tempted painter 

Colour my looted heart in dolour 


Before this twilight vines into perish

Give me a shard of you to cherish 

Maybe fashion your lips eloquently 

To furnish a smile so sweetly 

That I can forget it scantly

 

Give me something special  

Something unknown and un-ritual 

To treasure you in a vault 

Kept very secret in my heart
