why the rainy evening reminds me my solitude absence of symbiosis i don't know falling down of the book from the bookshelf was accidental not my canvas of thoughts looking out for the cocoon of your love the old book you gave me years back a gift or an enrapturing memento to caress me much later God knows a garden of autumn just followed me wherever my reminiscences went coupled with the rainy winds what a picturesque fragrance of you..hovering near me i noticed the last page the flyleaf unwritten,blank the pure white color has turned into off white like an overcast sky hiding the sun of subdued feelings reinforcing the years gone by or 'the time heals' consolation perfectly ensconced i wanted to write something on the blank flyleaf not for calligraphy or origami but for meeting you right there in the flyleaf itself but could not write much except your name and " God bless you ever" Kamakhya Photo Credit: Google

“sun of subdued feelings” i felt the power of feeling and still suppressed! Liked the usage. Hope I get what you tried to convey! Thanks.

Thanks for reading, yes you got it right… the variety of feelings so vivid so attached to heart yet subdued , sun of subdued feelings paving way for an overcast sky! Warm wishes.

Superb, This line especially reached out to me- “a garden of autumn just followed me wherever my reminiscences went” It welled up in my heart and I teared up. You so perfectly captured the feeling of wistfulness, part joy and part longing. I love that you wrapped it around the delicate flyleaf paper. This is such a warm poem!

What a great extended metaphor in this poem. An empty flyleaf holding all of that memory and loss. Inspiring.
