A Sight to Cite

A Sight To Cite

P K Routray

Within my sight,

day and night

at dusk and dawn,

in moon and sun,

in rain and winter,

in spring and summer

dance a bunch of trees of Gulmohar.

Over shadowing the obstacles

boundary walls and electric poles

when my eyes are off from computer

catch my attention their splendid grandeur

breaking the dull drab monotony

feel I livrng with nature in harmony.

See I in those trees many arts superbly drawn

and as also artists themselves perform  many an action.

With blooming flowers and fluttering birds glorifying the trees

give they me raptures joy dancing with strong or gentle breeze.

(N.B From my reading room cum working room these plants are visible.Their beauty inspire me. This poem is dedicated to them)
