 Mystical Notes

During freezing January 

Green foliage is numb

Basked by the weltering rays

And flowers Look at the amorphous sky

When plumes fly As sprightly as golden birds

Heckling pensive clouds

Poised with mystery

Beyond the poetic languages.

In the foggy evening

The sky is overcast

And the dry wind asks the leaves:

“Are you up for any fun with me ?”

The leaves make emaciated countenance

and speak in masticated sound

” We are no more for fun.”

In the chilly night

The foliage is clasped by the frozen cold.

And wailing flowers and leaves

Lie crumpled on the ground Under a big block of ice.

There is a subtle hum

And songs resound

Passing through the valley to the hills

Whispering Mystical notes Relished in ecstasy!
