PERCEPTIONS
-BY SARAH KHAN
Running from my hall
to room, yesterday,
beating my brain out to find
my book,
I observed the scars
on my hands,
dry skin
of winter, as a tinder
And looked at a smile
on the mirror,
sweet, benign, lively it was
But a diffident, querulous visage,
Like that of a touch-me-not flower
with
an ocean of desire and
a boom of doubt
And a kaleidoscope,
resting against the wooden
chair, I picked it up and
shook,
multiple patterns formed,
as a rainbow
and felt that flash of remorse
I held my book and
ran away to my study table
with serenity, grinning from ear to ear...
Too good.. I Loved it๐
