Uprooted grass


Uprooted  grass

A few   hours ago the cute  grass bunch
Silently    weeps for  the loss,
Loss  of  its  innocence,
A  butterfly  has its moorings on it,
its  freshness, its  dew   glanced,
Innocent  looks  upfront,
I mercilessly trampled upon it
during my inadvertent   walk  :
after  all  the  grass  with its
ancestral  lineage, its   peerless  smell,
sooner,  nods   elegantly  around the  soil,
It  does not   have  a  mouth   to  cry, for
no  hurt   or  crushed  pain  emitting  thereon,
no  rocky  stones, no  tornado
could  whiz past  the  earthy  queen,
on   my  return  from   gravel  path,
a  gardener’s  sickle   swaps,
crude   ‘ unkindest  cut’, grass
Looks   as  if  flamboyantly
Relieved from the  mud  cuddled   posture.
