Hands Feel Each Weave..


Thanks to Vibhuti for fabulous prompt..

Written for Haiku Heights..


Gift from my childhood
I shuffle pages of the book
Wow! Dreams fall, still fresh …

An infantile coat
Hands feel each weave, my mother's
Aroma in my first wear.

    The second one is also a poignant reminder of days gone by!!
    Excellent work RS!!

  4. You describe this wonderfully - 'dreams fall still fresh'. How it does, for those lucky enough to know where to find it.

  7. Such beautiful words, that say so much. I share your love affair with books - since early childhood they have been the conveyor of dreams to me. Loved these poems.

  8. Hi Ramesh~

    Your haiku remind me so much of Proust--remember the memories and sensory feelings evoked with the madeleines and tea? So wistful. Nicely done, Margaret
