Adream Poem by desamangalam ramakrishnan

Like a dragonfly
you came out suddenly.
Though not knowing the place
not knowing your path
not knowing you too
I was not in fear outwardly
but inside me there was a trembling
and had You guessed it.

Then you transfigured as an eagle
and did I know it or not
did I Know you too
or the path or this moment itself.

You showed me acave
and abruptly disappeared through it
as a little wave.
And hadn't you murmured at last
that this is the only way
to arrive and depart
and hadn't you promised
that you would wait there for me
with flowers of fortune.
