Waiting For Light
She waits...
at that spot he promised to reach...
When the dark blue and grey sky
Lightens up to pink and pearl grey
At the moment, just before dawn
Under the huge mango tree
Besides the splendid sunflower garden
She waits for him...
With hope...
The young bright golden sunflowers
In the garden
With beautiful brilliant yellow petals
And dark tiny florets in the middle
Their vibrant faces swinging
With slow dainty movements
Towards east
Waiting
Anticipating
The arrival of 'light'
The golden glorious 'sun'
For its dazzling rays of 'hope'
As the golden ball ascends
At the crack of dawn
The magical sky radiates
Hues of yellow, orange and red
And a silhouette of birds
Fly against the gorgeous sun
At the sight of the mighty sun
The sunflowers gracefully glow,
Swaying gently
To bask in it's glow and warmth
Under the tall mango tree
Hoping to see the 'light' of her life...
She still waits...
