DREAMS OF DARKNESS

 

This one might not make any sense, and that is what it was exactly meant to be. A mindless but, spontaneous registration of images that emerged in the mind translated into words. These lines came to my mind at the mention of the words: 'night' and 'dreams'. I did not labour to bring rhyming to my lines, it came naturally as I discovered after I finished writing.  I never liked this one very much , and the fact that few of my friends here have appreciated it  have amazed me no ends. It was meant to be a mindless babble of a 14 year old. I will be posting some of my latest creations
only after I finish posting the ones which I wrote back in my school days i.e till I was 16. I again wrote after a gap of almost 4 years, i.e only very recently.......and to that Sandhya has unknowingly contributed a lot. My heartfelt thanks to her. 


                     DREAMS OF DARKNESS


  Light of the day                                     Can’t take them away


                          Darkness brings them close.


  The foliage sway                                    Leaves wither away


                             Dreams come in a doze.


  Sky littered with stars                          Wise clock clobbers


                          Punctuated by some rain


  Nature does repairs                             Then why it mars


                          Sweet melody of refrains.


    Night lures to sleep                         Brings vision in heap


                           To give respite from all


     The undead weep                            Of agonies deep


                           Lighthouse appears small.


    The gloom off goes                           The east sky shows


                          A wine glass filled to brim


     The crimson red                           Spells life in dead


                        Night evaporates with dreams.           


THOUGHT OUT IN SNATCHES..........
