If
we are
adventurous enough
to overhear
open sesame
we would always
love
secrecy.
Who wants
this universe
to become
an open book
read
a hundred times over?
Let mystery
thrive
in
the hearts
smile
nature
words
to keep
our quest
going.
In the meanwhile
some would
never want
that little bit
of skinder
on dit
heart to heart
tete a tete
and the walk
through the grapevine
to end.
Surely.

A little bit of mystery always keeps things interesting!! Usually!!
LOVE. Especially mystery thriving in hearts ❤ ❤
Beautifully expressed 🙂
Lots of love,

Surely not! And yet that productive intimate secrecy is the first to be distorted by power-mongers–especially those who fear women. They envy; they throw us off their scent; they have no such loveliness in their sordid lives. Oh my! How did this sweet, mystical poem lead me into such anger? I who want to preserve the access and right to this freedom most of all? You’ve touched one of my secret buttons.
Yes, let mystery thrive, by all means, or what would we write about?? Your blog has changed again. I love your banner photo so much.
No, mystery will not end. The questions will thrive. Good poem Sumana. I like your format. It adds to the feeling of mystery.
I agree. We need that mystery, we need those secrets, for without them, everything would be so dull, everything would be soiled by the human touch. And yes, let that “walk through the grapevine” continue. “Surely.”
Very well penned. 🙂

I agree too – the mystery is so important. Without mystery, there is no allure. Great take on the prompt.
Mystery sure has its place. Beautifully written!
Gossip is fine so long as it does no harm. It is however a measure of a friendship to share secrets.
Mystery magic and gossip are essential parts of life
The mysterious is what attracts.. without it, there is no magic. Nicely written.
Indeed!!
Very well said, keep the mystery alive.
Mystery is definitely necessary..it’s one of the fuels of imagination – also love the expression ‘that little bit of skinder on dit’ – fits perfectly with the image
and the walk
through the grapevine
to end. Surely.
Secrets are juicy gossips at one end and real life and death info, not to easily divulged at the other end. Very true Sumana! Secrets should not be taken lightly.

Others would prefer they never had begun. It seems there are some that are inclined to creating or conveying secrets.
I like the way this was woven Sumana (like a web.)
Lovely…reserve a nook of mystery in the heart…I hope you continue to thrive!
I love the mention of the grapevine in your closing…it reminds me of the dance step and the weaving way that two people can saunter along while doing this. Lovely sentiment of mystery within.
Delicate and light, Sumana! Loved it!
