Whispers From Eternity - A Poem

[Bijay Raut]

Whispers From Eternity

I search for thou in the mirror of the lake,
In the reflection lit with moonlight,
Before thy image would fade out,
I try to capture thou in the canvass of my heart,
O beloved, where are thou?
I can hear thy whispers,
In the vicinity of my soul,
Though from eternity thou may murmur.
