Subimal Sinha-Roy Poet Rhyme

Impermanence

The azure ecstasy of the glistening autumn sky 
fades away with the blizzard of the polar wind.
As on the wings of winter the golden leaves fly,
gone with the surge the fleeting joy of the mind.

On the concave canvas of the hazy horizon grey,
rainbow dreams gleam as the transient arc of art.
In the clasp of the curling clouds they melt away,
gone with the rains the hues of the broken heart.

To a verdant vase the sunny vale turns from brown,
the petals of the life flower called happiness unroll,
shred by the cloudburst sky coming crumbling down, 
gone with the thunder the volatile bliss of the soul. 

The sparkling crystals of luminous mind’s chandelier
shatter at the sudden strike of the sequential strife.
In abyss the ephemeral flickering candles disappear, 
gone with the wind the last flash of the transient life.
