Anitha Jayasankar Poet Verse

Soothing Serenity

The morning sky glows in rays of nature's lamp
The sun-lit earth gives a cheery smile in its charm

A baby calf drinking milk from mama's udder;
Tiny yellow common grass butterflies
fluttering around in open green grasslands;
Paddy plants sparkling pearls of dew drops at sunrise;
The three-striped bushy tailed little palm squirrels
scurrying around the trees in search of nuts;
Small pale-billed flower pecker birds on tree twigs
swaying gently to the rhythm of soft morning breeze. 

As I see the vibrance of nature, yet feel its lull
during my morning walk amidst nature 
through the idyllic countryside, 
my wearied mind is refreshed and nurtured -
the soothing tunes of serenity serenading my soul
in a moment of love and peace

Sotto Poet October 20, 2021 at 7:15 PM Ani, you carefully performed an excellent job with your creative writing abilities. You've properly produced a genuinely brilliant job of drawing outdoor sceneries. While I discover your poem, I could perceive the images emerging in my subconscious mind as I wade through it. I sincerely wish you all the best.

Andrea Dietrich October 20, 2021 at 4:53 PM You did a fantastic job with descriptive writing, Ani. Was it free verse you used for your bottom section. You can write "free verse" used in third stanza if you want. I used tanka and made note of it, but I guess it's not a requirement

Vijay Pandit October 20, 2021 at 5:42 AM Nature images wonderfully painted, Ani--I saw the scenes unfold through your words as I read your poem. All the best.

Victor Buhagiar October 20, 2021 at 2:26 AM I'm sure this will rate high. There is a vibration in your poetic composition.

Susan Lawrence October 19, 2021 at 6:22 PM Ani, I loved walking with you through the serenity of nature and her creatures. Beautiful descriptions. Hugs and Blessings, Susan :)
