Romance with her along with a Slug

The early morning time. Sun is peeping from the horizon expecting a welcome word from the dew-drenched gardens which were full of flowers bathed in Rainbow colours swaying in the coolth of gentle breeze!

She stood there... a garden to walk in and immensity to dream in--what more could she ask? A few flowers at her feet and above her the rain-washed Rainbow! The swinging flowers spreading the sweet fragrances all over .... she recollected a famous poet's enchanting expression--- The earth laughs in flowers.

She lost herself in watching nature, unaware of a slug stuck to her ankle... touching the rosebud with her fingertips while recollecting the words of her young lover who met her only yesterday!

He was there on the other side of the wall watching her with a quivering heart, with stars in his eyes.

"She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from her... I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flowers are so eager to kiss her cheeks! But I was too young to know how to love her.. what to do now ..."

A distress call in the form of an outcry! He jumped over the wall and ran towards her, she was shivering like a chick, clung to him while showing the slug on her ankle!

He tried to squash it with his foot, no respite, she tightened her grip over his shoulder, he put his one hand on her slender waist and bend a bit to take some salt put on the side of flower pots and rubbed it on the slug. It dissolved within seconds and he wiped her ankle with the green grass!

She moved a bit away from him with a shy smile, he walked up to the tub to wash his hands.

She saw towards that skeletal creature, a weird feeling, whether to love it or hate it now! Love and hate are the same at times like different sides of the same coin, only in forwards or reverse gear. So if you want a new relationship, you must first disembark onto the platform of flowers; only then can a charming Prince can arrive to save you, to romance with you along with that scary slug!!

I love nothing, life said to me.

Sweet nothings.

I love the sweet, expectant nothingness of an empty page!

I was swept away by the glorious, wonderful, empty page!

Cause I'm trying to compare life to a piece of paper

What you have written on it is what you have in your path

It could be a short-term goal with a single paragraph

Or a long-term goal with a page and a half

But it doesn't matter because it's just a piece of paper!

When I was a newly born baby, I wanted to write a poem with my tender lips on my mother's bare chest!

But, lost myself before I write all those nascent words in my mother's sweeping smiles, looking into my eyes with an extended feeding of life's elixir! I left there like an unexpressed empty page!

******

Everyone has a story that needs to be said

And when Shakespeare said "Life's a stage",

It means you have a role that needs to be read

And you know that you can't read it if you don't have one!!

When I wanted to write the youthful zest ---

I stared at the blank page, and wonder what I am going to write because the words need to flow, and I need to get it right! I don't want to hide my love from the world, I just need to express how I feel, and get my point across, without being open book or too sentimental. I sat here to write my love story...

I just need the words to flow from the pen to the paper and did not leave a word unspoken, as rhyme follows rhyme, and emotions, and descriptions magically flow, creating colors onto a literary canvas, to show my quivers while swaying in the fast pace of love's boat which started sailing into a far off place with Him in it!

But... but, I was so engaged in his vigorous enthusiasm, forgot to copy-paste the gusto and passion on that empty page! It has remained there as the sole witness of my romantic verve! I have no idea when it folded itself to hide from my sight while I was engaged in life's different phases! I was a warrior of dreams, a winner of thoughts, and an occasional slave to a few wishes and vices! Forgot about that blank page while filling joy in my heart!

*****

Now I stood in the last scene of my life's drama! Glaring at all the previous scenes with empty eyes! Inadvertently started a dialogue with the blank page fluttering in front of me... about to fly!

Hello, my dear blank page, I’m here to let you know, you hold no fear for me , I come prepared to write something on you ... I am a writer, a writer armed with fearless words, and clever, tenacious ideas, yes... life taught me many things, with an experience I gained command over expressions!

Your unmarked surface, your dazzling, papery blankness, is no match for a word warrior, such as me! I shall stare you down, I shall annoy you, I shall employ you, just watch as you yield to the irresistible spread of my words! Within no time, bit by bit, your landscape will be transformed

your emptiness filled, you hold no fear for me Blanky- Blank Page!

Searched for a pen to write, alas, fingers started trembling... eyes started blurring, breath was struggling to sustain, the curtains started down, with glee, the empty paper fluttering there in front of my lifeless body!

No one succeeded to date to fill it up!! Still, it is empty, fluttering there in every breath of a newborn baby!!

Good morning!

After the fun we had with slugs and blanks, let's stop harassing our poor Madi!😃. She as always proved her mettle.

Padma, I guess you cannot even attend the funeral of a covid patient, other funerals there is a cap of 20 people's attendance. Maybe can watch on phone if the family streams it.

Hope all well with everyone and their families, keep well, keep safe!🤗

Thanks, Avi, Padma, and Vibha for the appreciation and good words for my simple write-ups. 🤗

Vibha I am not sure weather my Paternal Uncle was COVID patient, but these days the hospitals are declaring one.

This year is really unfortunate one. Could not attend both my uncles funeral. They and their children attended my father's. See I can't go either as they stay in Visakhpatnam and I got to take care of my family's needs in this pendamic.

Hope my cousins understand.
