A Metamorphic Change

It was dawn, I woke up Looked at the east sky A huge Orange like sun there Serenity everywhere Nature was calling me Perhaps to sleep on her lap I tiptoed to my lawn Sat on my easy-chair Tea cup in my hand Curly steams were raising up A reflection of my face in hot tea Reflected on the interface of my heart. I looked at the trees To my astonishment I saw Greenery flowering down their eyes They asked me How are you ? Birds Chirped up- Good mornings, very good morning! Squirrels greeted me Invited me to watch them hiding nuts in grass Deep love dazzling in their face. Bright hues of marigold flowers Their magical petals, supernatural attractions Sew seeds of poetry In the land of my imagination. I pondered-they’ve not my own beings Nor my descendants But for them what would be my life I might go-through worries. Rooms of my old house Came in a row, saluted me Asked me to take care of my health Doors, windows and dusts of room Were so worried about me I realized, I was socked. Today I felt, they are my life supports! I looked into me I heard them praying for me The poetry of earth was heat toughing The blue sky opened its vast chest I tried to open my heart, but couldn’t, I painted the shade of my life Almost blank! On the black road Know-unknown people walk Their smiles blossom in me as un-withered flowers Their sorrows pierce into my heart as poisonous thorn. Suddenly a kid of two-three years Came tottering by Sat on my lap, touched my lips gently Within a nano-second I deformed into a Kid My heart is light now What a metamorphic change!
