Petrichor And Promise
Petrichor And Promise
By Arya Meshram
Petrichor fills the air,
A promise of rain
Echoing miles away,
Across the overburden land
To the shoreline's whisper in the east,
Footsteps heard of someone
She associates with tristfulness,
A blur of blue-white haze seen on the
Constellations residing on the marmoris
Is the remembered one finally here?
"Yes, as Lucent as ever"
The sea coruscated in his presence,
His smell trickled the skin—greeting
As if still alive, just how it was a few seasons ago
A thin thread tied her to this place,
The other end to someone who is now alive
Only in this air and her memories
A gentle embrace felt by people like her
Who mourn silently.
