Closed Book...


I'm not happy with myself...
I'm an unpicked book in the top shelf...

Dust settling over as time passes...
No more top corner folds or behind the back creases...

There isn't any glance up here...
Forgotten and left out I fear...

I remember being open...
Every line being read while munching a bun...

From morning shine till night's dim light...
Never putting me down, that hold was tight...

Laughter, thrill, adventure was my magic...
I sure use to give her imagination a kick...

Gone are those days...
But I still try for her one gaze...

Old and read I'm...
Hope I could rewrite myself like a programme...

I know I won't again give you that kick...
But don't forget I was your pick...

They used to cast shadows with reference to the sun's position as it moved from East to West. Later when civilizations advanced mechanical clocks replaced the sundials. But even though they replaced them, the mechanical clocks where calibrated to match the speed of the movement of shadow of the sundials and also its direction of movement.
