Poetry4 :- I still search for You!!

I catch my breath &
close my eyes,
Travel back in time,
I travel with the wind of spring
Into the land of new born
Only to meet you,
And , be amazed at the beauty of curiosity
That shines in your eyes
Smiling out there, untouched.
That makes me smile.

Ripples & the thunder
Rain & the petrichor
Leaves shivering, 
falling upon the green wet grass
And, there you are
Jumping & walking & embracing your feet
with the coolness of wet grass.

Fallen rose petals
Shining sunflowers
Bees humming
And you flying 
with your arms stretched out high.

The lunch bell during noon time
Where you run to the fields
Waiting eagerly for the flying kite-to pass by
Only to relish the take away of the chapatis
placed near by your side.

The splash of water
and the swift movement of the fish
Orange and red, black and yellow
Exhaling little bubbles, 
you swim along with her, in her world
Freely and all with ease.

Flower plumeria all over the bare ground
Shining like white dew drops with yellow pearls in it
The little child in you picks it up
turning it to ring
That shines on your little fingers like golden ring.

The starry night sky
Blue with stars
Shining & twinkling stars
And, a glowing, red crescent moon
In the middle of those stars.
You spending your night with a book among the stars.

The yellow mustard fields
Swaying joyfully with the wind
Glimmering with the rays of sun
You sway in those fields
And unveil your happiness hidden deep within.

Green litchis hanging high on trees
Watering your mouth
You secretly climb the tree
Only to find the sourness within.

Walking carefree on the road
Dwelling in the melodies of birds
Moving in the direction of wind
And just be free!

Well! I come back
And realize, you were a child
Who is no longer alive
A long lost curious child
And, now, the life is just going on
Searching for the lost child
that had the spark of curiosity
always alive!!
