Supraja Kannan Poet Free verse

What's New

Short grasses and weeny worms,
got some substantial time,
to breath in.

Hungry birds,
concealed inside the shelter,
have flapped the feathery wings.

Sweet little squirrels,
cuddling one another,
have started foraging food.

Rats and rabbits,
raised their heads,
from inside the tunnel.

Succulent winged newborn butterflies,
finally basked in the sun,
had their first flight.

Ain't these the common things?
Anything new here ?

These were the tableaux,
after perpetual rain.
Verily, there were the same scenes,
before that perpetual rain.
But then, 
did we really cherish the Sun?

Alexis Y. December 21, 2020 at 5:59 AM Hi Supraja, Your descriptions are so well written. I can envision each animal that you described. After the rain has finished, a beautiful rainbow will appear, and the sun will shine bright. And all will be as it once was. Excellent job. Ps, it's good to see you posting again. Thanks for stopping by my page today:-) Alexis Supraja Kannan December 21, 2020 at 7:37 AM Thank you so much,Alexis...
