Quarantine Muses

By Aneek Chatterjee

Quarantine Muses

Spring had come after all,
in times of trouble

Droopy Mango buds invited
me and my luv for a swing

this spring, and I got burnt in a
vibrant forest of unsuspecting flowers

Pink yellow red and blue colored
a reluctant tabula rasa this holi

and in a March morning, I whispered
to Aparajita leaves in the balcony

Tell the world I'm still doing fine
Although in quarantine
