Notes About The Poem

When a Lark Sings

I listen attentively when a lark sings
Singing never a sad song
Singing fondly to fools, kings, all and sundry
Always singing with melody and mirth
Calling at the dawn of a new day
Bringing bright smiles 
To even sleep-deprived sullen faces
So soothingly a lark sings; as I listen
Eyes closed
Imagining my mother sweetly singing 
A lovely lullaby to me as a child
Arresting my attention span spectacularly
Oh, how it moves me mesmerizingly 
With song and make my ears ring with rapture
Indeed, I love listening when a lark sings
