Burial Ground
Star-studded sky
With blossoming blue light
Beautifying the grace
Of the flowing water
Making an eternal sound
Makes me spell-bound !
Sun-smeared sky
With flooded light
Falling on beautiful flowers,
Dews in the morning
Refreshing nature all around
Makes me spell-bound !
Cloud-cast sky
With thundering lights
hailing the howling wind
In the patter of rains
Damping all the ground
Makes me spell-bound !
Hurt heart-sky
With pleading tears
Praying for some balms
On the wounded mind
Of hapless humanity-
A growling hound
Makes me still
in the burial ground !
