Spring

Shiny days with skies clear,

Humming birds with blooming flower,

Spring oozes all over the nature,

As winter recedes bit by bit;

In an attire of newly wedded bride,

With orange red flowers of Palash,

The onset of summer starts peeping

Through Palash’s flame like appearance;

Thus spring act as the bridge,

Between winter and summer,

Through the celebration of Holi,

With the colours of love and brotherhood;

Our mind is also like spring,

Acting as the bridge between

Wintery ice like physical body

And evaporated vapour like soul;

But we are caught up in

Eclectic colours of mind of,

Joy and sorrow;

Love and Hatred;

Anger and guilt;

Thus we are lost in

Our inner spring for forever,

With perverted illusive colours,

Away from our colourless existence.
