AVENGED

 



AVENGED

 

Tumultuous electric moments,

Aware of the arrival of youth swell,

Unforeseen imaginary spider,

Weaves threads of dream allure,

Like a river to the brim swirling,

Mimic stream of thoughts cling, (1)

 

Churlish outspoken heart rebel.

Influenced hardened spirit to dwell,

Work harder you work, time short,

Accomplished caps success, effort,

The immensity of determination focus,

Life hardly got averted, not curious, (2)

 

Spring came, flowers blossomed,

Profusely attractive petals earned,

A gentle breeze swept past limbs,

Tried best to magnetize his heart,

Buzzing swarms off bee joyous,

Spread warmth Sun got mild and sweet,

Played hide and seek with clouds,

Dark clouds turned white monks,

Landscape ornate verdure flowing,

Long grass white furs swayed airy,

Symphony of light and shed pulled, (3)

 

He averted searching eyes toiled,

Long silent night creepers flowery,

Jasmine invited his spirit Feathery,

The fragrant night river got placid,

Turned silvery under full moon vivid,

Far off a boatman playing his flute,

The ethereal motionless air carried,

Tried the best to molted his heart,

Nature failed in that night dews weep,

Star-studded night leaves dazzled,

Cuckoo sang the song if melancholic, 

Bewitchingly attractive seasons failed, (4)

He was burning his midnight lamp,

His youth was precious to grab fame,

Work changes destiny completely,

The world recognizes achievers a lot,

Incredibly popular, his fames, escort,

Luxury comfort gold match wine,

Drink happiness youth felt prime, (5)

 

Money will make a happy family,

Friends to crowd intent smelly,

Yes, a mighty yes reality happens,

Today his place, prestige sharpen,

From hundred miles people owed,

The disbelief, amused honor showed, (6)

 

Time hay stealing life stealthily,

Ripping black hair whitish visible,

Wrinkles cover the face recognized,

Feeble eyesight, hearing trouble,

Walking feels difficult with a long stick,

Breathlessness by walking in a park,

Sadly once the youth he is no more,

Twinkling twilight years time unsure, (7)

 

Sitting on a wooden bench scrutinizing,

Spring visited again decades after,

Astonished, his soul overwhelmed, aura,

Rising crimson sun orange sky lit,

Birds soaring high, chirping gleefully,

Profusely blossoms changed the park,

Spectral hues aflame bright color,

Speechless his young heart no more, (viii)

 

Throbs missing nerves still and numb,

Soul fails to resonate, respond with aplomb,

Seat here for hours, a statue silent trailed,

Avenged the Spring reminded season failed. (9)
