'Semul' dreams

Clipped-winged,
tongue-curried.
Vibrant, glossy, proud!

    She     would     sing     of     memories     of     d   r   e   a   m   s.

          Dreams.
           Semul   seeds-
               luminescent, silken, weightless, floating
                    here,             there,           everywhere;           staying
                      n         o           w           h           e            r             e.

                          Trapped.
                            Soft,
                               beautiful  heart
                                 behind     cold     bars,
                                    in her sweet (curried-tongue) voice
                                       she would sing      S       e       m       u       l            d      r      e      a      m      s.

  1. I like these lines:
    1. Clipped-winged,
    tongue-curried.

    2. Semul seeds-
    luminescent, silken, weightless, floating

    3. Soft, beautiful heart
    behind cold bars

    It paints a picture of a beautiful little birdie - in a cage - very pretty - sad, yet singing :(
