Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Quintain (English)

This Year In English Quintain

Someone is knocking at my door
The night’s cold, my world’s dying and drear      
It’s Good Joy. Cheers! No more, no more
Oh dear, I cannot open the door for her 
Sorry Joy, glide by, I’m sick and not in my gear.

Someone is knocking at my door
The night’s cold, my world’s dying and drear
It’s Good Hope but I can’t be lured.
In dark shadows I grope, what makes you come here?
I know you mock the life, glide by, I desire.

Someone is knocking at my door
The night’s cold, my world’s dying and drear
Oh, It’s Good Health. This year you won’t be ignored
Welcome, I dart my doors open for you, dear.
I do need nothing but your blessings this year.
