Nocturnal reverie
A pleasant walk and lonely light
There is a song of philomel, a mild
Cool air permeates, the tree mute
Witness to owl on the branch, silent
watching; nodding grass in the banks,
cool moon on bench and shadow
on the banks – all kinds of flowers
interplay, all imaginative free play
serenade on wings of leaves and falls;
a poet never leaves Nature’s beauty,
nor do objects of nature forsake a real
poet’s moods and serendipities; cows
and sheep , swallow and bluebird group
in a form of meadow, these happenings
in the fertile free play of poet, magician,
nocturnal events in daylight reverie of poet;
but somewhere , the crudity of unthinking man
taps, in its own way. All rage subdued, all
rigor controlled, all peace renewed in the
morn, with rays rewinding morn and noon.
