FORGOTTEN NAME
By
CHANDINI SANTOSH
The last time
We visited the sea,
I remember
It was swollen with gray water:
Afraid to lash at the shores
You called me
By a forgotten name from the past
As time peeled in layers
All round us
I sit at this hollow beach
While decades shed their snake skins,
And wisps of memories
Land in my lap,
As the sea withdraws below my feet

The narration was simply superb.... as if one was standing beside the beach....what a coincidence...Veni and me were at the beach last night to enjoy the Valentines spirit. She loves romancing the beach and the dimly lit moon, the sound of tiny waves overlapping each other, the sound of silence and smell of the wet beach.... everything was so nice. The day ended with some good food, expresso coffee at the Cafe on the beach.
