Monday, April 30

The Strident Silence.


The falling sky and the hushed clouds,
Dedicated squirrels and the birds loud.
A confused bamboo groove and ruthless grass free, 
The zealous foreplay of the creeper and the Sal tree.
Pebbles like tired pilgrims lay at rest
A tailor's attempt to build the nicest nest
An upset myna caught a drifting bud,
The air it smells of fresh wet mud.
Wind whistling away and the busy bees.
The glazed slopes and the moth-eaten leaves.
The hectic setting and the restless hills,
 And through it all, the valley rests still.
