Memory Lane
By Joshua Kennedy in Poetry | Reads: 684 | Likes: 0
Poor little girl, subjected to such horrors at such a tender age. Sad little boy, whose father beats him black and blue till he, bleeds every drop of trust. The whip of a belt, the crack of a fist, is all it takes for a childhood missed. All it takes, yet it takes all, the children, the innocent,   Read More...

I always find something mysterious in the dusk. The birds returning to their nest, the distant sound of the steamer, the tea sellers in their earnest try to sell some "lemon-chai", the gushing sound of the Ganges water hitting the last step of the ghat and me, observing every minute detail with a pe  Read More...

Hidden in the corner 'twas, subdued by Rumi in the shelves, Drowned in the flow of words, it still stood out, like some work of elves . Her hands flitted out of her robe unsure, whether to pick or desist From her true nature, but eventually, she couldn't resist . Sitting in the corner, she forgot al  Read More...
