Maples and Gulmohars



Everytime the maples bloom 
there in spring,
I'm falling in love,
strange is this,
but when your guitar strings
whisper in this season 
around the corner
I get winds of your touch
and hear the melodies of your body.
Our love was locked under the Seine,
Don't tell me you didn't sing that
day and I was drunk,
remember how you held my hands,
and we kissed.
Back home, we watched how
the maples turned red,
and slept under the stars,
to name the shooting star.
You wished and I wished to make your wish come true.
And here when gulmohars bloom 
I'm falling in love, again.
Everything's changed
but I've been looking for you,
I can feel you dancing with me,
being in your arms.
Stay with me until I fall asleep,
nothing's going to hurt you,
as long as gulmohars 
Surround us,
Let us light a cigar and 
dance under the sky.
I will kiss you right
on your scars,
healing you forever,
bringing you back,
seasons don't matter
without you,
whether it's  maples or gulmohars.
so let me do it,
I'm the shooting star 
that you can feel and dance with.
And there i can see the 
road spread with fallen maples and gulmohars,
beckoning you to join them.

THE DREAMCATCHER ( A Poem)

She tried. And made the hoops from willows to wove those magical webs. Wrapped the hoop with suede lacing. The string was woven onto the hoop. Hours passed. She wove some of her favourite decorations to it. Feathers and gemstones, hidden with meanings. Hours passed. But she wanted it  to be perfect. And finally, here it is. THE DREAMCATCHER. She hung it on  her bedroom wall and watched it carefully. Rubbed it with an artist's pride. The hoop smiled, ensuring the travel of sun through the mighty sky. She thought that when night comes  the hole in the center would only let Bawedjige( good dreams)pass. She would be able to sleep safe and sound today. The nightmares will never ever haunt her. For she has her Dreamcatcher. And Bawedjigewin( bad dreams) will be trapped in the web, to be dispelled at the first light of morning. She slept. The sun rays pierced into her eyes. She opened her eyes with the innocence of a newborn babe. The thought stroke...

Everytime there came a music from the old devastated house on the hilltop.It wasn't jazz or melody or rap or opera. It sounded the broken soul. The long lost soul set to dwindle and shrink in solitude.Sewed into melancholy and dresssed in rhapsody,the hilltop triumphed over the hurricane of that season.And the music from the house gradually faded away,to welcome the next season.

No Worries!

I really wonder why people around me worries a lot. They stress on some matters as if it some great disaster is about to come.. We have this sole life and spending this whole life vexed on trivial things means wasting our valuable moments.Instead of that why can't people cherish their memories ? At least it can create a smile on their faces. Spread smiles and relax your cheek muscles. Travel lonely and accompany no one. Purchase and feel everything. Make this your motto and live a better life. You can die a better man. A.C
