Every Cloud

Every Cloud shows a silver lining

         Day dawned displaying dew droplets.
        Shiny Sun added sparkling charms
        I was counting anxious moments
        to greet my sweet heart in my arms.
           She must be coming
           I am eagerly waiting.

       Merry morning was about to mourn.
      My eyes were thirsty. She was not shown.
     Morning rolled to nagging noon.
     She must be rushing soon.

       Hands of clock going round and round
        On our special day she is bound 
       to come without showing lame ground.
       Noon passed to next phase.
       Afternoon showed its face.
       She must come sharp.
       But she did not turn up!

      My heart was about to burn.
      Drizzling showers under the Sun
      dispersed sunbeam into spectrum
      pasting rainbow on sky-album.

      Even in dismay and despair
      I knew somewhere over
      Rainbow would appear
      to portray my life in color.
      Evening twilight brought me hope
     till Sun went down on quick gallop.

     Night darkened, evening merged.
     My tingling passion only urged,
     ‘Come My Dear, Come My Darling!
      Why? Why are you not coming?’

     I sat in darkness of dolor not putting on light 
     Just watching hands of clock to touch midnight.
     ‘if, ‘Perhaps’, ‘But’, several possibilities fight.
          Mobile showed ‘No answer’
           She sent no message either.

     I am neither weeping nor crying,
          but whispering
    ‘Every cloud has silver lining.’
       
        
I will hold her at night while dreaming. 
         I will visit her prompt on next morning.
           
         I will snatch your heart
         I will catch you fast
         Perfect match at last.
         
        Let the hands of clock go round and round
        I am pretty proud to voice my love loud
         Silver linings are shown in every cloud
         Some when somewhere rainbow is bound
         to bend in semi- circle touching ground.
         My love is gold to glitter, bold to sound.
