Golden Cage

by Debashish Haar — Read all 156 poems by Debashish Haar

Sunday, July 25, 2010

A man pastes honey on his eyelids
before going to bed
to dream ants and spiders.
In the morning his eyes weave
webs of silver and gold,
his mind stretches wings.

Each evening flying
with the birds his mind enters  
itself in a golden cage lit
by honey lamps.

the mind captures what it attracts, either with idea or the sweetness of its being ... this poem captures such thoughts ...

Is this REALLY already five years' old, Debs? I can't believe it; it still captures my breath in the same way as it did back then and the atmosphere and images have life and vibrancy for me still. Truly ethereal as well as gilded and captivating. A fine filigree of a write. xx

Golden Cage, the prison of wild fancy and rich imagination. Great stuff.
