Solstice

I am salved with the galvanic rhythm
of silent rivers
insubstantial shadow, a night.
The oar is a heart,
untying the mouth of waves
The wind wavers still.

Petaled in a lotus.
I traverse ungrounded
as it fathoms a diffused
dusk
a twilight as lucid as oblivion


And somehow if you were not mine,
What I would not have endured?

Came to this one immediately after reading Interstice. Why is this Solstice? How does this poem paint a picture of culmination?

Hi Abhra - do you still write poems? Most of the works here goes back in 2007. Would love to see your recent works as well.

Beautiful, surreal poems.

Regards
Mahua
