Between the Lines

A tie left loose
The fabric still perfect
In a hurried hurricane of footsteps 
Through carpet-proofed hallways
And fluroscent-smelling lights

A crafted bouquet of intentions
Nervous or excited, hard to tell
Rushing through fountains
That turn and pause
To witness a bracelet getting lost
Among silky crevices of perfumed petals

Dwindling footsteps 
                                     Smiling Eyes 
An unravelling watch hurdled
                                     An assuring pen steadied
Paces soften
In Mangosteen framed stories
          And then the dust settled, but
                  The breeze relished something new

That was not but still was new
Ranunculus and sapphire 
And an ivory promise
In fabrics of conch and blue. 
The tie... was still left loose...

About Me

My photo
As a blogger, one of the things I am often asked is "How/ When did you get started with all this?" For as long as my memory takes me back, I have always found myself pondering about a plethora of things. I have always loved reflecting on the small but wonderful aspects of life. Ipsita Contemplates has been very special and I love to get the opportunity to share my musings, my thoughts, and my perceptions with you. It is also a way to appreciate the essence of Life!
