Description
The body may rest
But the mind will wander
Fears unfold
With frightening thunder.
When the storm is over
And the deluge is gone
In the dreamland
A hope is born.
From the oriental skies
Wisdom will dawn
The play will restart
With a hopeful yawn.
Fall by the side
Or stand till the end
In the no-man’s-land
Truth is the only friend……
Have you ever wondered if the sun is trying to send a message to you? Have you ever been intrigued by the sea waves trying endlessly one after another to reach the shore? All of us, at some time or other do wonder at the connect between various elements of nature and human emotions.
While the thoughts would always have an individual streak, there is a universal theme in which we all, in our own way connect human emotions with nature.
The poems in this collection marvel at this connect and bring out the awe and the intrigue involved. From the daily grind of the sun, journey of a river, joy the rains bring, struggle of the sea waves to the mystique of time itself, the poems in the collection create imagery where human emotions and various elements of nature get interwoven and start appearing as one and the same.
