Marble Slab

Marble Slab

       - Poem©by VeerajaR

Under a cold marble

Slab or a slate,  we place 

With heavy hearts 

The parted ones, still 

Pulling at our hearts, 

Catching us unawares… 

Memories surfacing almost

Everyday of precious moments 

Framed within our brains

Echoing within the heart 

Pulsing through electrifying

The core of our being splayed

Pulpable on a marble slab! 

*Dedicated to Sweet Aunty Manel....

I am my mothers' daughter
