The Dark Shade of the Coconut-Tree

The dark shade of the coconut tree... Leaves an eerie silence in me... While I stare through the window in dead midnight... Looking for some comfort in the darkness quiet...! It has dark foliage...dark fruits... Dark like the soil behind the roots... Dark like darkness...dark like Hell... Sinister like the sound of death-knell...! Some invisible bird... with its dark dark voice... Disturbs the Night's tranquil poise... And a gust of wind...like a water-stream... Diffuses to my night & dream... Dark dreams....dark thoughts again.... Like the unheard yell of the tree in pain....! As though I'm the tree's lone translator... To read & write about its dark dark chatter...!
