SOMETHING OF EVERYTHING IS IN EVERYTHING.

-AAKRITI THATAL

The street we used to walk in, 
Has a new store, I gather 
The café we sipped coffee in, 
Now holds a new colour. 
There are added shelves and drawers 
In the kitchen we cooked. 
And the dog now remembers 
How I smell and look. 

The seasons have changed manifold 
The earth turned over. 
Times five, already 
The Trees have grown older, 
Its shade now darker- 
Cool to cold 
Took not longer 
Than the seasons changing 
In the month of December.
