HAVING
BEEN HAPPY.
Having been
happy in touching metallic skies
Or fingering
the moon for its dusty overlay
Having been
happy in moving orbs and the shores
Or spreading
the sunshine to the burrowed moles.
Watching a lonely
planet amid reluctant universe
Communications
with eyelids in retinues of mankind
Having been
happy in sweeping the volcanic dust
From a cold
planet cast under the Brahma’s curse.
Having been
happy in holding that repose
Which contained
hidden geometry of the universe
Having been
happy in consoling the suppressed cries
Of the shoring
waves under the moonlit skies.
Durlabh Singh
