I stopped to see
I STOPPED TO SEE
I stopped to see dew shimmering on my face
It flushed and beamed from leaf spattered trees
In random sunlight of this placid morn,
The bus broke down waking me an eye
Otherwise I would have slept dreaming
The tired towns with people snoring,
The eyes bumps in the blue-blushing sky
Growing little red,
People fizzle out all miseries
And hard to see a flare path,
A long row of white fumes left by an aeroplane
The busy insects with their morning task,
The sunlight filled me,
Never had I seen the waves of mist
Crashing shards of light,
What is beautiful and stunning comes
Without a purpose,
Letting you relaxed in a moment
Of broken trust.
Composed and copy right by Rajendra k. padhi
