Onset Of Winter Poem by DEEPAK KUMAR PATTANAYAK

Onset Of Winter

Rating: 5.0


Onset of winter
- - - - - - - - - -
Rain you have done your part
Not without toil and spurt
Transported by a chariot
Sometimes of monsoon
Sometimes of depression
You sprinkle but a drop of water
Here and there
Appeasing many a parched heart
Now you have quenched
The Earth's thirst sustained
By summer's blaze

Now pause a moment
And muse upon the
Fairness of going on a pilgrimage
Entrusting the reign to winter
To rule the earth for some days
Until you come back
With new hopes and new rays
Now winter moves in
Like a merciless queen
As does she look like
But not so her I reckon
While counting in the beginning
And she is beautiful I reason

I reason in the beginning
She is calm and serene
In sun there is a feeling
Of subtle sweetness brewing
Winds blow but
With an impact soft and soothing
And at sundown
The breeze felt cooler than the dawn
And it's very soulful indeed
When a soul seen lost in pleasure immense
In a while days will be shorter
She will grow mighty and harsher
Lest daisies dare to come
And birds flutter and carol sweeter
The sky grey
And trees greener
