Cold Cotton Road

I'm denuded from the extravagant When the breeze, gliding icy scent The season of valentine, birds chirping in their nest Whence I'm stepping on paradise, on the cold cotton road Now my costume is rustic, I'm listening music-folk The bird of passage is starring, the sky so blue The tall primeval wearing white coat greets "I welcome you" And All around the camouflaged woods, covered in snow Whence I'm walking in paradise, along the cold cotton road I'm covered by woollen, I'm breathing vapor, so cold It's quarter to ten, in the active city My eyes are widened starring the angel's beauty Since wondering mind acclaimed, wee lassie is so pretty Whence I'm roaming in paradise, past the cold cotton road I'm filled with joy, for the wonders I behold A journey to paradise along the cold cotton road.... ~Ashok Kumar Mishra
