I Am With You

I was in a thrill While watching the beauty Of the diminishing Sun, and Feeling that the darkness would Slowly engulf everything. The returning birds Had eloped from the sky With their soul mates. The last of the fading sun beams too Were in a hurry To touch only the top of the trees. Only I was there, Watching and waiting While standing amid the flowers and trees. The diminishing Sun, Was trying to hide and go away, Knowing that the night would slowly Approach without stopping and Would remain there, Till the sunrays eliminates the darkness, By its sunbeams and light next morning. The colorful clouds in the sky, Were hovering all around the sun Making that evening, An evening of some memorable moments In that serene quietness, I was trying to hear, The melodious singing of the loving birds. To make it more enchanting, Crickets too, Became active to play their music, Watching the fast approaching night, And no one to disturb, their mighty kingdom. Suddenly I felt a touch of soft cool breeze, As if, it was was trying to console me, Do not worry “I am with you” Ravindra Kanpur India 24th Jan. 2012
