Once, I
lived on a tree,
With everything
green around
And other
birds pretty.
An elegant
view of hillock,
Where lived
a little dunnock.
She came
here,
Quite near;
She sang for
us,
With no
fear.
That day
should have never ended;
When our
eyes had met,
And she had
smiled.
Tree had no
bells,
But wind had
chime,
With a voice
so fine,
And a schematic
rhyme.
Sunny galore
of spring,
Had sent us
warmth,
Clung with
love in his ring.
And Cupid
had sent Raven,
With flowers her favourite,
From garden
of his heaven.
That day
should have never ended;
When our
eyes had met,
And she had
smiled.
Mr.
Snowfield had left,
As his snow
got theft;
West wind
came here
And dug his
tent our near.
Then trees
had swayed,
With dunnock
that played,
A song from
his tumbler;
The Cupid’s favourite
number.
That day
should have never ended;
When our
eyes had met,
And she had
smiled.
A day then came,
When there
was no sun;
Only silence
resided,
And no birds
at fun.
With cold
wind’s smack,
Mr.
Snowfield was back.
No view of hillock,
No sign of
little dunnock.
Gone were
all birds,
Gone was
that Raven;
Gone was our
love,
With Cupid
in heaven.
I turned to
see,
If anyone
was there,
Left alone
like me.
I know,
She was the
last to flee;
She forgot
me,
And about my
broken knee.
The last
leaf then turned pale,
Its veins
turned white,
And soon it
fell.
That day
should have never existed,
When she had
left my hand;
She chose to
move away,
And I died
at our kaput stay.

ReplyDeleteA great metaphor...the seasons...the journey of love from its new beginnings in the spring...to it's full heat and peak of discovery in the summer...to the waning of love's kiss in the fall...preparing to end...and the winter's call to Silence...buried in the cold of the first snowfall...nicely done...
