Beautiful poem, Shail. You most certainly have a poet's eyes and heart, to be able to see the exraordinary hidden behind the most mundane.

Thanks Beyni. The prompt was such. And writing about this theme was a challenge.

Thanks Shernaz. Nice you liked it. Had no way out but put on the poet's goggles on and find verse in bricks....

Brick has many connotations, starting from very ancient to present, is a witness to history, to civilisation, to prosperity or lack of it and many more. Nice composition, Shaili.

Shail,
Bricks lie ignored like unsatisfied desire left to rot..
How true...!

Shail Raghuvanshi said...

Yeah, truly. What history, what stories they would have to tell to us. Just imagine!
