Homecoming

Whether or not to touch her hand Is the pertinent question now She led me once to a slumbering gorge Made me dive into it And I was completely drenched With the soothing fountain that Lay there untroubled for millenniums I feel doubtful Whether she really showed me the face of the ancient Banyan tree, engulfed in its serene silence Whether made me listen to the rumbles Of the long-lost rivulet Still I find the shelter for The homeless bird in her eyes
