HOW    LONG………..

          When the day
is coming to a close,
and the sun
is dipping in the seas,
I have often heard
formations of birds
chirping away as
they fly homewards.
    I have often heard
the quietness of seas
as the waves
roll back
and merge into the seas…………….
          I have often accompanied
the lonely moon,
as it trudges across the sky
full of twinkling stars,
but none to keep him company.
I have often shared
his loneliness
in the still of the night….
      I have often followed the Sun,
as it burns itself
from the raging heat
inside
as it seeks solace
of cold water, and has to
cross the whole sky,
before finally plunging itself
in the cool blue Eyes of love,
which we on Earth call---SEAS.
      I really do not know,
how long
will I suffer the burning ,
searing heat of
separation in my own heart,
before I find
solace
of dipping in the oceans of love
in your deep brown Eye
              HOW        LONG………….
