lost and found
well there was a time
when i stopped by
your little world
lost in the melee
of devotees who
thrust their
devotion and
awe-strucks
who handed
globules of
their awe
i stood
with tiny
fluorescent
saplings of
ceaseless love
analogous with
the projection
you shared with
the rest of the world
yes i waited there as
footsteps came from
all directions
in that mayhem
of globules
and gods
i held a small globe
which was also green
and when i tried to place
them across they turned
to words a whole mesh of
symmetrical meaningless meaningful
words that made
you notice me
with a smile
of approval
and a nod
you see it was
not a bad start at all
considering the very fact that
i was but a lone penguin sliding
thru a shifting maze of caves
joyous alive content
cause it felt warm
to be inside
your womb of
secrets
by the end
of which i saw
a blinding flash
of light which
i still carry
for you
and will
do always

Mmm! Love this. I believe all those we meet are not by chance. All things have a reason. :)

Sibilant hum.

Out of one of my text books (masters level theology).
It says it means ' smiling with love', hence my little rebus emoticons. It's a list of love variants from the Vedas, cross referenced with Torah.
Told you I'm a geek.

Okay. The pronunciation is the key.
Smita [the short a] and Smita [the long a]
are two different words. The former is
'smiling' and the latter 'beautiful'.
I wuvv geeks. :] Am proud to have met you.

well there was a time
when i stopped by
your little world
lost in the melee
of devotees who
thrust their
devotion and
awe-strucks
who handed
globules of
their awe
[I am struck by this image, that the subject has created an entire world in which everyone is kissing one ass, and I love the way you made it semi-masturbatory. Very slick.(Yes. that was a horrible pun)]
i stood
with tiny
fluorescent
saplings of
[pop culture reference, very cool, easy to miss on first read. you're so sneaky with the reference.]
ceaseless love
analogous with
the projection
you shared with
the rest of the world
[AND HERE WE ARE, you're calling her out as a fake, but you see the projection and know i for what it is.}
yes i waited there as
footsteps came from
all directions
in that mayhem
of globules
[I'd find a better word as globules is repetitive]
and gods
i held a small globe
which was also green
and when i tried to place
them across they turned [ IT not them or they, you have a singular globe, no?]
to words a whole mesh of
symmetrical meaningless meaningful
words that made
you notice me
with a smile
of approval
and a nod
[Was it a warm smile? A cool smile? An arrogant smile? A knowing smile? I don't know enough about this subject to know. Did her eyebrows quirk? Less vocabulary mashed together and more wretched details of life.]
you see it was
not a bad start at all
considering the very fact that
i was but a lone penguin sliding
[LOVE THIS IMAGE. The little flightless black and white bird, alone...]
thru a shifting maze of caves
joyous alive content
cause it felt warm
to be inside
your womb of
secrets
by the end
of which i saw
a blinding flash
of light which
i still carry
for you
and will
do always
[And the end is so achingly tender, that you still carry a torch.]
Lovely offering Sumeet. Your constant evolution is lovely.
Happy writing,
Betty

Sumeet, another interesting poem by you. I like this, but there are a few things that could improved. :)
"awe-strucks
who handed
globules of
their awe"
The use of "awe" twice in such a short about of line/words is too much. It's repetitive and not in a good way.
"yes i waited there as"
IMO "yes" isn't needed here. It gives an impression of dialogue.
"i held a small globe
which was also green"
IMO "I held a small green globe" or something similar would work better and be more powerful than what is there, which is a little to whimsical and vague.
"and when i tried to place
them across they turned
to words a whole mesh of"
I don't understand this part? What is being places across what?
"you notice me
with a smile
of approval
and a nod"
Maybe be cliche, but for flow IMO would work better as...
"you notice me
with a smile
and nod
of approval"
"i was but a lone penguin sliding
thru a shifting maze of caves"
The penguin reference is cute, and understandable without having to tell the reader why. :)
"your womb of
secrets"
Absolutely love this line :D such wonderful imagery just there.
Hope this helps
Peace, Indie

Hey Indie
So you come to one's rescue twice in succession.
Is that a pattern, sweetness? :]
thank you for stopping by. this was a first draft
and I submitted without much thought. Needed to
get rid of the block. so thank you for the help.
it needs rework, yes and will take down the pointers. most of them. you have been very helpful
today.
much love,
sumeet
