drowned in saltiness...
The river
wounded by stones
and falling from
the lap of the mountains,
wanted only two drops
of the ocean's love
wanted to run on
the carpet of oysters and pearls
the sky couldn't bear this
he sprinkled love
by becoming a drops of dew
he loved her by becoming
the drops of rain
but river's love was blind
she continued
to flow at her own pace
last the ocean gave her
only saltiness as a reward
n she drowned
in the saltiness
with her salty tears...

This is really good, Dimpy. Clever usage of moisturizing elements to try and counter what's dried/brittle. A bit of a sad poem, yes, but well written to where it feels rewarding to read.

The love of sadness is interesting. Always comfort the lady in her time of need. Keep on writing.

You make erotic the mingling of salt water with the coarse river water, makes one think of estuaries in another light.....

I take it with gladness, alongside the stirring picture (moment of "what does that remind you of?")
