Akanksha Ayantika Poet Verse

Repristination

Repristination: to restore to an original state


A humble home of yore
Caught the flames ablaze,
Burned down to ash-floor
Razed to a smoky haze.

Only if we could
Line up the pillars
Renew the floorings
And set up new fillers,

We could dust the cinders
Paint the charred walls
Hang tapestries of trust
Place daisies in the halls,

Foundation of love and lenience
Rebuilt on cleaned ground
As it once was before
With felicity roaming around.

In such wise, we could regain
The seats on veranda at gloam,
Look at the dying embers in sky
And restore the pristine home.
