A Rainy Dawn

A mere walk in the street with some old memories, At a mute dawn with lighted bulbs; Recalling again some old sceneries Sore retrospect running in my arteries. Under the bridge I came; to wonder Heard some drops falling on its top! Declaring the demise of the silence hereunder The rooftops began to crack by the thunder. A forlorn feather struggling to rest on a concrete. When it found a sleeping puppy, It slipped on his feet. Contiguous to him- it took a seat. I slithered over a perished white paper, figured out it was a love note! yearning to reach its friend ,from a weeper, saying that-without her-he is a forsaken laker. He also conveyed the conventions they made: "We can conquer the world together." "Thou art my harmony and my shade, "so no farewell is to be bade." Suddenly! a phantom of a car drew near And alas, I was in the middle of the road reading the note I resigned to this feeling of fear. And soon was a vapid body of a deer. The last thing I glimpsed, was: A worn out man on an old bicycle -tattered though it was, it showed no flaws- Waving at me; manifesting his sympathy and awes. I discerned there was no reason to survive This venom of old grievances Decided to eat me alive! And there was no cure to make me thrive.. Struggle-didn't I- to remain No echoes of merry sounds to listen No shadows of love, but pain, Nothing alleviated my heart's sprain. I left the glass broken And I seek no returning back. So many words left unspoken But the tale is not yet woven: Because the rain was washing my dust! It didn't want me to rust. And the thunder was roaring for me To look around and realize the glee! The peacefulness by which the puppy slept And the shelter offered for the feather to be kept. The love note that made me believe love still exists, And old is gold with the bicycle despite its twists And now I could see the sun on the horizon, I- with the whole sleeping world-has risen.
