Being With Nature

Nostalgia drove me to my ancestral  home
The air there was infused with scent of Frangipani
At twilight vermillion rays made the water so
flying mockingbirds made ripples 
 with droppings on  the pellucid river
Some trees bent down with fruits so luscious 
The only sound that broke the tranquil
Came from the menagerie
Poor animals made noises 
Wanting desperately  their release.
