SLIGHT IMPRESSION !

You came to my world and disappeared Next moment ; I thought several times
That first look with a slight impression
Why does it make my heart so restless
Your smiling back with sweet glances
I don’t know what you are waiting for
Am I the one whom you trust so much
Why I have this feeling time and again
The buds of rosy lips have blossomed
Is it due to the passion of your heart ?

REVIEW
********

The speaker’s sudden encounter with a girl who made a hasty disappearance without a lingering conversation has etched a great impression on his mind.The impression is not “slight” as mentioned in the poem,for a negligible emoton can not give rise to a poem of this kind which is universally applicable.As the first impression lasts long, the speaker is too powerless to delete it.He says:”I thought several times that first look with a slight impression”Her sweet glances make him restless in anticipation of a psychological immediacy.This restlessness is reiterated in the line:”I don’t know what you are waiting for”.His inability to read her mind, which he tries to do,is clearly pronounced when he asks:”Am I the one who you trust so much”. Moreover,this also reveals the feeling of inadequacy that troubles him.The last two lines are riveting in asmuch as they show desires and conflicts in the mental landscape.Very smashing poem,Dr Prasanna Sir. Congratulations and regards.
