The light of spring fills the air, and I want to be no more
I know I'm close, I know you're near and I want to be no more
I've followed leaves scattered by your dance
Memorized so many Zen poems, think I deserve a chance
To touch your lips, to get a glance
To dance with you
I've read philosophy, been meditative
I'll throw it all away if you wrap me with your fragrance
So much so that there's no more me
Like a river that's no longer a river when it reaches the sea
In present moment awareness I hear you sing
My walking is dancing, my breathing kissing
You have a way with words, yet tell me to leave them behind but...As long as I'm here there's you to find.

"Like a river that’s no longer a river when it reaches the sea"
i wrote something today and it would not escape images of water...but your poetry is expansive.
i noticed you sign akash at the end of some posts...

Most Beautiful Firelights...Bless you for your appreciation of my poem. I don’t even know if I can call it mine since I struggled to put this one together. I meant for it to be longer but a poem can sometimes be like a child, you want it to do something but it has other things in mind.
I wrote this a few weeks ago while on a train here in London. I was struggling because I wanted to incorporate a sort of rhythm or structure much like you do but I suppose a poem can easily become a bar of soap, if you try to hold onto it too tightly it slips away.
I noticed that your location is India...you might enjoy this book www.shantaram.com that I’ve just recently finished.
Yes Akash (which is my name) does mean Sky!
May this find you with a sweet embrace.
