Listen

How I wish ,you listen to the scintillating sound of raindrops..
Or the melody I hear in the birdie chirps...
I am much of a loner..
I enjoy my company 😊
Can you just sit besides me, gaze stars
And listen to the silent symphony..
What I don't mouth, my eyes express it all,
My lowered eyelids too speak volumes, Of course, it is your call...
Ohh !! How I love to watch a clay pot being made??
The sheer joy to witness something so beautiful to create...
And, yes... Who wouldn't want a solitaire on the finger..
But I would prefer your gaze on me to linger!!
I love it when you plant a kiss on my forehead..
Or making me cross the road, I really dread!! 😊
These desires are just like Corona...
Once they enter, never dead or old...
Kept them to myself.. You never asked..
I never told!!!
