What I wanted to tell you

What I wanted to tell you was, 

What the rain that conjures petrichor-

Told the waiting arid earth, 

What the brook about to conjoin -

Told the ocean with open arms, 

What the tired soggy bird sweet-

Told the welcoming tree, 

What the forlorn traveller at night- 

Told the stellar universe above,  

What the blushing tender Spring-

Told the dancing Gulmohar, 

What the pearly moon lustrous-

Told the azure lagoon below, 

What the naughty waves singing-

Told the sleepy shore aside...

What I wanted to tell you was, 

Those words uttered from the soul, 

Reverberating through the epochs...

Love, clothe me with your arms, 

And make me feel at home.
