when the ripples began by anelephantcant
Click here to hear the poet read his words:
when the ripples began
looking back I remember
when the ripples began
that exact moment
when my life
lost tranquillity
like a sweet gentle breeze
your smile
brushed my mind
and your eyes
and mine
started dancing
your voice soft as love
your accent beguiled
my ears
were enchanted
and heard
not a word
but these days are long gone
and my life
is now calm
though there are times
when I still miss you
my soul starts to writhe
and my heart beat is faster
because
looking back I remember
that exact moment
when the ripples began
