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.
