Honeyed with memories
Arunansu Banerjee
about the sunshine today.
I shall soon be sailing away
with a fleet of Sarus cranes.
I shall be leaving you behind
in the care of a vast azure,
the habitat of my gray-
-stained seafaring thoughts
.
Something is odd about the silence:
I notice an extra effort in your smile.
Each corner of the road bids me
farewell; my luggage gets heavy
with such smiles; some melodic
moments lurk in your eye.
