When stars twinkle
Like bright colorful string
The pensive bluish lake water
Waving
Like dots of memory….
The moon lit leaves
Look dazed in silvery glare
Numb with dew
Ruffling with windy frill
Dreams simmer
And float
Like spewing glint of smoke
Gliding …
Life seems a colorful doll
Decked on cascade
And wounds and scars
Seem to be burnt ….
Songs of love and grace
Resound
And children holler in the yard
Bemused in delight!
