Under an olive tree <br />On the shore of sea <br />Hand in hand eye in eye <br />We used to sit, long back <br />My baby and me.. <br /> <br />Through those year long tracks <br />Resting on the memory yacht <br />My mind sails towards that shore <br />Where we had a romantic role... <br /> <br />I behold the shore, the sand and sea; <br />Behold the well grown olive tree <br />Behold the waves that alone seem <br />To sing a different note in glee <br /> <br />I wanted to search the remains <br />Of romance we left over in the air; <br />Searching the tree the sand and shore <br />I could find them, right up there... <br /> <br />The new leaves; I could feel in them <br />The remnants of our love; their rhythm <br />I could hear, the one time songs, sweet <br />Fresh and lush in green, in them in repeat... <br /> <br />3rdApril 2008<br /><br />Kesav Venkat Easwaran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-evergreen-remains/
