The Snake Charmer


It lay for time stretched now
Don’t ask me how
Coiled three and a half
Unaware in horrible sleep

Dawned the snake charmer
A charmer indeed!
Swaying and Playing His Oboe
Spreading ceaseless bliss

Inch by inch, bit by bit
Lifted its hood
Finding possibility at each and every step
Fully aroused aware

Looked at the charmer
A charmer indeed!
Filled with love and tears of bliss
He moved on to find another one
Unaware in horrible sleep

Rams, thank you, it is indeed flattering....
To tell u frankly efforts from my side to write these kind of things has been nil, it has just happened only thing I did was to let it happen...
