Prolonging the early spring evening
walk
Romantic music from the ears to
soul
Forgetting the world humming into
myself
Took a narrow path towards the
river bank.
No sooner I entered the shallow
woods
Felt like someone is following me
calmly
Turned back to check if I could see
someone
Visibility was only the trees,
bushes and the lonely path.
Imagining the beautiful trees and
cool breeze
Followed my steps towards the
beautiful premises
I, meanwhile, lowered the volume of
my EarPods
Thinking to rectify who or what is following me.
Irritated by the sound following I
turned back
Eyes wide open, began to search
here and there
Walked back the same path to probe
out
A plastic bag struck in a branch
was enjoying the wind.
