AGE OF INNOCENCE
A Poem composed by Ranjit K Sahu
Agile among the blooming daffodils
Galloping on grass like a colt in spring
Eagerness for life in each breathe it fills
Offering to bewitch like buds blooming.
Forgetting heat and dust shall greet life soon
Indulge in the play of the soul and earth
Not bothering for what woes will be strewn
Not caring for what lies in life post birth
Over the meadows among the birds’ song
Casually the spring winds shake the boughs
Eyes capture each view as life treks along
Never tired of the green grass and the cows.
Cast your spell Oh spring wind in life again
Embedding joy in hearts while downplaying pain.
