The Morning Saga

Soumen celebrates the beauty and message of the dawn, in this verse, exclusively for Different Truths.

That morning the birds were chirping
Everywhere happiness was juggling
The sun beams falling upon my face, spoke silently,
“Wake up, it’s your time to race”
I saw few mysterious fog whispering
Saying, “How long will you chase”
and suddenly gets erased
I saw the flowers blooming in joy
The trees so green shaking their heads as if they are born to enjoy
The fallen leaves rustling as if some sorrow left behind
Sings their glory lost in daily chimes.
I thought a while of the fog, so hazy
Appeared a tale of dull and dizzy
Suddenly heard the giggling spring
Saw the bees with melodies so enchanting
All that is good dazzles but not with an ease
Building memories being dedicated to our individual race.
