Abandoned Quarry

 

An abandoned quarry 

The graveyard of a hill 

Bared bones of an ecosystem

Ripped apart of its soul 

By machines that extracted granite 

The contractors took away 

As much granite as possible 

Until they couldn't make any more money

Bereft of rocks

Deep trenches emerge 

With full of water reminiscent of green 

Like a cluster of ponds

But the water was unsafe to drink

With remnants of chemicals 

Unsafe to dive and swim

As it is deeper than it looks 

After years of solitude 

Nature absorbed the land 

Back to its fold 

With shrubs and trees 

Providing a canopy of green 

When the water became safe

Locals deposited fishes 

They thrived in those ponds

Birds came back and set up nests

On the trees 

The air had a new fragrance 

The visual treat lure people

To experience the miracle of nature

Let's Get Lost

A poem based on prompts from #loveletter #vssdaily #MoonMystic 

Invisible Scars

Invisible scars in a broken heart,

Left by someone who proposed 

to last the distance,

The depth of it is so deep,

Torn by the broken trust,

Pinched by the lack of compassion,

Hurting more with each lonely day,

Healing is like a snarling snail,

Taking eternity to find solace

Lark Person

I wish I was a lark person,

Rising early to see the sunrise 

and mist in the flowers,

I wish to breath the fresh air 

with the tinge of intoxicating earth,

I wish to feel the cold water in river,

I wish to walk under the canopy of trees,

But I remain asleep in the morning

Orchids

Orchids in a botanical garden 

Rendered the elegance of roses

Could it be a gift for his lover?

His eyes gazed at its beauty

Inside the bouquet he kept a note

Dear,your smile is mersmerising 

Shy,and natural like this flower!
