Every writer hopes <br />That his words will outlive him <br />How many succeed? <br /> <br /> ** <br /> <br />Some moments preserved <br />In Time's refrigerator <br />Can never be thawed <br /> <br /> ** <br /> <br />The pleasant journeys <br />From reality to dreams <br />Ticket-less travel <br /> <br /> ** <br /> <br />Book of memories <br />Yellow with passage of time <br />Earmarked here and there <br /> <br /> ** <br /> <br />Words flirt with poets <br />They have oft to be cajoled <br />Before they are won<br /><br />Elizabeth Kurian 'Mona'<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/haikus-37/
