indira babbellapati - dolce far niente, a sequel*

remember our fog walk
of a winter morning...?

our hands closely clasped
spreading warmth into each other
we took each step together
into a zero visibility ahead
whenever a sudden wind
blew on our winter-bitten cheeks
didn't the clasp tighten?

how our fingers released
stars shining brighter
than those up above!

we took each step
with those stars guiding us...

* for karin anderson...thnq so much for suggesting a sequel. i lived each word that went into this...
