He came with my Spirit
I am the spirit that roams round the earth
singing with the river the songs of love
enchanting the memory of ancient glory
like the spiders crafting web-cow ,
like a mermaid with long tail flashing the water.
One day i went to visit a friend very dignified
Who lived a life of a king-size
Now capsized within four walls
Lying on bed and waiting for the call
I touched his forehead with the ends of my finger
as if I was trying to remind something we enjoyed.
He felt my presence as if I am somewhere around
And with delight he started to tell stories of the past
It was like a poet who takes pleasure in reciting his best poem.
For an hour old memories paraded recalling past,
It was like the shadows of the trees over the grass.
Finally when I was about to leave
His spirit came out of the mortal body to follow with me.
