A Winter Morn

Hushed nature stood reserved,
with no'ne to appreciate its beauty,
but placed for ages, preserved
and for ages following its duty.

When at the brim of verdant plot
some reaper, move at range
to charm but to depart
with sublime thought exchange.

With many unseen flowers
blush, shiver, and dies
peeping for someone from its bowers
and spread beauty, serenity, charm and flies.

Conserved water flow on its rugged path
and leave its lively mark
Each day as Sabbath
With reflected gleam of golden arc.

The grace of the lily swan
as it flies above heaven
above this mankind dropping and wan
between sun rays all seven.

The small plant which shiver at night 
just sooth their soul with silent sun's gleam 
and all new born plant which might 
have died, now sleep deep, and innocently dream.

Bad and good are juxtaposed ones,
if one prevail the next one wait
if good is present you cheer and dance
and if bad, you curse but your fate.

Good sooth the soul
as winter sun after dull night
and bad effects all
as in summer afternoon, a yellow sun bright.
